In the end, this was a very *bad* idea.  Using the "new" IMAPrev1,
evolution would start to filter my email and then hang with a message
"Pinging IMAP server" and never recover.  I would pkill -9 evolution,
then retry only with the same consequences.  Back to using just plain
IMAP.

BTW, my IMAP server is:

* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ NAMESPACE UIDPLUS
CHILDREN BINARY UNSELECT LANGUAGE XSENDER X-NETSCAPE XSERVERINFO
AUTH=PLAIN] bos-mail1 IMAP4 service (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging
Server 6.2 HotFix 0.05 (built Jan 10 2005))
