I can access my mail using IMAP with "pine" (a mail reader from the
University of Washington).  The "fetchmail" command also works with
IMAP.  But I can't get Evolution to work.  I specified the server
(po.sandcraft.com) and my user name (veenstra) and when it asks for
my password, I type that in.  But Evolution does not read the mail.

Does it even show you the mail folders?

In a separate shell, run:
        CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 evolution-mail

Then start Evolution as normal. You'll be able to see everything that
Evo says to the IMAP server. 

Check your configurations setting -- ensure your namespace is correct
(you probably want to set it to 'mail/'). I suspect Evo could be happily
listing the contents of your entire home directory through the IMAP
server. Did you have it set to show all folders and to check for mail in
all folders?
