OK. I am using Evolution with a mac.com address, so perhaps I can help. I did not create any extra folders outside of Inbox, so perhaps that is it. I have not had any problems setting it up, just pluging in the obvious choices in the Evolution settings worked fine for me.
I haven't had a problem with email from mac.com on the Linux side. The problem is that when I try to to go the mac.com web site and login, it complains that I need an Apple computer to do that. I am using an Apple computer, just with Linux instead of Mac OS. So they will not let you use Linux on the mac.com site, one is forced to boot into a mac os for that. How do you have your Mail Settings in Evolution? In Receiving Mail I have IMAP Host: mail.mac.com Username: gnu_ibook_2 mac.com (from the mac side) will let you set-up multiple accounts, I have 3 mac.com email addresses, go ahead and setup and test a few more and then desert them.
