I think there is a translation problem here - probably the translation
of the messages into German have introduced confusion.  The messages in
English say that the SERVER is offline, not Evolution.  I get that
horrible big red box all the time with the IMAP connection to my Gmail
account at home where I'm on a slow ADSL line (it never appears at work
where I have full raw internet connection speeds).  All the rest of my
IMAP & EWS accounts are fine and continue to send/receive mail even
though the Gmail connection is in error.

If Evolution was offline, then you wouldn't be able to retrieve emails
for any of your accounts.
