I subscribe to a debian mail list and read its messages via gmail.
Evo consistently fails to retrieve messages from three specific regular
contributors to that list. These same messages can be read in other
clients (Thunderbird, The Bat!)

I would invite anyone interested to subscribe to 
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ to see if this replicates for
them. 

If you try it, look for messages from wanderer, tuxteam and lermer. In
my case, Evo shows a message similar to "Retrieving message “48039”".

This is persistent; workarounds such as switching away to another
folder and back don't fix it.
