        Hi,
I do not think it's server's issue, you have the old evolution running
with it without any problem. Your options above look correctly to me,
their UI names were changed between the two versions, but they are the
same internally.

The window you see might be the Send/Receive window which lists your
configured accounts and the update state of it. The exact account
description could change in the meantime too (between 3.4 and 3.10,
which is 3 years).

I suggest to run evolution with imapx debugging on, to see whether it
does anything or not. You can do that from a terminal with this command:

   $ CAMEL_DEBUG=imapx evolution

You should see some updates there, and based on your previous error you
may even see there a hude list of all folders found on the server. If
you want to start from scratch (let evolution redownload your folder
structure from the server), then delete
   ~/.cache/evolution/mail/<imapx-account-uid>/
folder. If you have configured only one account, then there will be only
one folder.

By the way, were you asked for a password? Maybe evolution is waiting
for it. I do not know what you did after an install of newer
evolution-data-server, but I would make sure that you have both
evolution-data-server and evolution packages up to date and then restart
the machine, to have background processes restarted, from the most
recent package.
        Hope it helps.
