If you stay with your current mail provider, then your best bet is to
do what Reid suggests and set up an automated system to copy IMAP mail
to your local machine independent of Evolution.  I would add that I
know people have used "offlineimap" for this sort of thing as well.

There shouldn't be any reason to restrict your mail provider to just
your ISP (unless they are real bastards and block access to other
places! In which case dump them.).  Gmail is a reasonable start and it
is integrated nicely with Evolution via Gnome online accounts -
although some of the ways they do things is a bit non-standard.
