I know it's probably no consolation to you but I was experiencing the same issues and was concerned about the fact that it never seemed to sync data locally like it said it should. I tried all sorts of different hacks and attempts to get it working. The only thing that worked was purging evolution AND the purging the hard drive of all config and data files. Only then when I reinstalled did evolution function flawlessly. That being said it was a pain having to download multiple gigabytes of emails again from the imap server. It's not really a workaround but figured someone else might benefit from it if they were also at the end of their tether like I was with this issue.
