I don't think Milan has the answer as I see this same behavior when converting Outlook generated RTF formatted emails to Tasks using Evolution.
The behavior I am seeing is that when Evo encounters RTF formatted messages it converts them to HTML, but displays the the resulting task as raw HTML. IF, as Milan points out, this is because it tags it as text/plain, this is an evolution bug.
