Remember 'New' != 'Unread' - if something else (like a mail notifier or another email app) is seeing the email before Evo, then it is no longer 'New'. This is an IMAP function and nothing to do with Evo - Evo just asks the IMAP server "What's new?" and acts on the results.
I see you're using a gmail address - if you are downloading your email from google using IMAP, then I can well imagine that something in the google system is 'seeing' your email before you do. P.
