The URL handler that Evolution uses is set as part of Gnome Preferences
and you've already said that it is set correctly.  Beyond that Evolution
doesn't know how to do anything.  I have a feeling that this is
behaviour that is set in the browser itself.  In Midori go to
Preferences -> Browsing and make sure the "Open new pages in:" is set to
"New tab".
