I shutdown evolution and then deleted (thank you Pete)
~/.local/share/evolution/camel-cert.db and
~/.local/camel_certs/*

I restarted evolution and had the same problem -- exactly the same
debugging output for login to the IMAP server. Since I also have a
completely different POP account I was prompted to "accept"
a new certificate for that account and that worked fine.

The connection to IMAP is SSL on a dedicated port.

Would you like me to try anything else (Milan)?
