I just checked the height of my modified window. It's 740 pixel.
Assuming the default height of 24 pixels for the top and bottom gnome-
panels that makes: 740 + 2*24 = 784. So unfortunately still 16 pixels
too much to fit on a screen with height of 768 pixels :(

But please give me feedback on my proposed solution and I can continue
reducing the size of the preferences window.

Note 1:
In the evolution code I could nowhere find the code/glade-file for the 
generation of the "When mail arrives" part in the "General" tab. I found code 
for linking this UI-element to application parameters, but not the 
GUI-generation itself. Is there a separate "Notification" plugin that does this?
Anyway one drawback of my solution would then be that when the notification 
plugin is not installed, the "General" tab would only contain the "Delete" part.

Note 2:
My modified plugin adds one new label to the GUI with the text "Display". So 
this word also needs to be translated. However I think no work has to be done 
on this since all PO files already contain the msgid "Display".
