Public bug reported:

Starting recently, I've been receiving this message when I try to
connect to my (previously working) mail account: 'The reported error was
"Could not connect to 'mail.messagingengine.com:143': TCP connection
reset by peer".'

Due to the timing, I suspect that this is occurring because my mail
provider (Fastmail) disabled SSLv3 support due to the POODLE
vulnerability. I also found this thread
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1153052) concerning the
same issue from Red Hat, so it seems a fix exists but needs to be
released in the Ubuntu packages. This is a fairly serious problem, as I
am now unable to acccess my mail from Evolution (and if I was able to
access it, I would be doing so via a dangerously broken protocol).

Ubuntu 14.04
Evolution 3.10.4-0ubuntu2
