I think Evolution is just better at managing system error messaging
and errors than Thunderbird.

As a user of Evolution for decades, always with a variety of IMAP
servers, it would be difficult to convince me Evolution's IMAP
implementation is broken in any substantive way.

But there are broken server implementations out there for sure - - -
and I suspect with the rise of 'The Cloud' implementors feel more
freedom to be fast-and-loose with compliance to standards or
convention. :(
