In the 1.0.x series of Evolution, there is a "Work Offline" button, but
I've never used it.  I believe that in the soon-to-be released (in a few
months anyway) 1.2, you can do this more easily.  I'm sure those on the
list who have more experience than me in this regard could offer some
input.

It depends on the setup.  Does your provider use IMAP? Since POP only
supports one folder (your inbox), if your ISP supports IMAP, it is
likely all you'd have to do is change the protocol type in your
configuration to be IMAP rather than POP.
