        Hello,
I guess you face this bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733081
which is fixed in evolution-data-server 3.12.5. There will be done
a 3.12.6 release today.

You can install debuginfo packages for evolution-data-server and 
evolution and then get a backtrace of running evolution with this 
command:
   $ gdb --batch --ex "t a a bt" -pid=`pidof evolution` &>bt.txt
Please check the bt.txt for any private information, like passwords, 
email address, server addresses,... I usually search for "pass" at 
least (quotes for clarity only).

You can also see what IMAP account does when you run evolution from a 
console like this:
   $ CAMEL_DEBUG=imapx:io,imapx:conman evolution &>log.txt

Though I'd still try with the newer version first.
        Bye,
        Milan
