So it was online previously?  Probably you need to toggle back to online
mode via File -> Work Online.  Or clicking the connectivity
icon/indicator in the bottom left corner.

Or possibly your NetworkManager installation is broken;  Evolution gets
network availability information from NetworkManager.  You can start
Evolution via "evolution --force-online" to just be online regardless of
the system's reported status.
