My experience is probably irrelevant for you, but I thought I would tell
you about it.

I was running Fedora 17 and evolution 3.0.3 under it worked fine.  I
upgraded to Fedora 20, and under it evolution 3.10.4 can't receive mail
from my email server.  (Thunderbird and balsa have no problem.)   There
is an extensive bug report about problems with that version of
evolution, and they apparently think they have resolved it.  But the
latest version does not work for me.  I tried  everything, but nothing I
do does any good.  It is very frustrating.
