Public bug reported:

Comcast/Xfinity is pushing us to go to IMAP instead of POP, so trying to
do this.  Setting up an evolution IMAP account to imap.comcast.net is
all that is needed to reproduce this.  Keep getting a message from
evolution about imap.comcast.net disconnecting on a ping.  Want to know
if this indicates a real problem or is just an artifact of
incompatibility between ubuntu evolution and comcast/xfinity, and CAN BE
IGNORED.

Error reads as follows: "Error while Pinging IMAP server
imap.comcast.net.    Server unexpectedly disconnected.  Connection timed
out."

Evolution info:  3.2.3

Ubuntu info:   12.04 (precise)  kernel info: 3.13.0-55-generic

I am reporting this as a bug because Ubuntu Software Center says:
"Canonical provides critical updates for Evolution Mail and Calendar
until April 2017."
