This got a little lost in the shuffle before, but the reports at the time were ppp0 (Linux's PPP interface) specific. I've observed the same problem when an ethernet interface (Linux eth0) drops and there are open IMAP connections over it. I presume that it is totally interface unspecific - just that if the TCP connection gets dropped for whatever reason and evolution doesn't know about it it doesn't get to be very graceful dealing with it. One addition to this: you can try and shut down evolution, but it just sits there trying to kill the Shell. When Scott submits his bug report I will add to it with an example of what I've observed.
