I would be delighted if you would take the time to itemize these
problems and document the changes that would be needed to yield
the improvement in performance and interoperability you foresee.

I know that support for IMAP server hosted calendars is planned
once the specification is finished and has become an approved
standard. Work on this support probably won't begin until the
standard is approved. This is important, because we want
Evolution's implementation to work with everyone else's.
I can't speak for the Evolution team in regards to integration
with dbmail, but my personal opinion is that this might be an
interesting project if it could be pursued in such a way that
the products did not need to be bundled together. Also, the
integration would need to not interfere with interoperability
with other servers.
Cheers,
Miles
