evolution isn't the best suited tool for that.
If you want to automatically download the contents of a mailbox for
automatically processing them, I would use a program like fetchmail or
mpop (you should configure them to pipe into the script, instead of
using a pre-existing mailbox format like Maildir or mbox).
