I have a related problem. (At least I think I do. If not then feel free to disregard this post.) I am running evolution with a gmail account. I have the evolution indicator plugin enabled and have "indicate new messages in panel" checked in preferences.

At first I thought the indicator applet wasn't working (zero count, no icon change) but realized that if I waited long enough it does work. (approx 3-5 min). This can be reproduced by shutting down evolution while there is new mail and then restarting it. A few minutes after evolution is opened the indicator applet does its thing and updates the count.

As an aside the notification bubble has the same delay before it appears.

(if this is not the same bug just let me know and I'll look for the appropriate report.)
