I was reading about this issue on the Evolution mail list.  Evolution 
changes some information, only when closing and this is causing 
problems.  This may be related to the issue you are having.

On the list it was mentioned that Thunderbird changes the message state 
as the message is read.  I prefer Thunderbird and wouldn't use Evolution 
except to work with Exchange server.
