In that case some configuration is requiring the messages to be
downloaded.

As Milan said there are some configurations which will require the
messages to be downloaded.  Do you have junk filtering turned on?  What
filters do you have in place?  Anything that requires Evolution to look
in the body (or some headers) will trigger a download of the message.
