Thank you, Patrick. You found the problem. Multiple connections
were set to three. I set to 1. Now messages appear to be coming as
expected.

Some providers, including Google, use rate-limiting on their servers.
This can affect IMAP service, especially if Evo is set to use multiple
simultaneous connections. You can limit this in Edit->Preferences-

use. I
have it set to 2 for Gmail, but
YMMV.
Aside from that, make sure you've ticked "check for new messages in
subscribed folders".
