Stfano,

it is realy hard to implement an imap client. and it is much complicated 
while using different imap server with different implementation of imap. 
some server dies not support this and others does not support that. So 
some client does not support this and others does not support that. And 
the next problem is, this is not neccessary the fact for all client-server 
combinations. mozilla works great with the cyrus imap server but possibily 
not so great with the uw imap server.

So, eveolution seems to work not so great with the uw server. simply try 
out the courier server. Possibly evolution is much faster with this one. 
Btw. normaly courier is much faster than uw and more secure.

Martin
