In some cases it is an issue of picking the suitable keywords.

The above URL has the workaround. The canonical way to deal properly
with this is a bug report
at launchpad.net, with an issue 'Evolution Mail switches to Offline
mode after distro upgrade',
and then look for a bug report at the Evolution Mail bug management website, at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=evolution
Finally, link the bugzilla.gnome.org report to the Launchpad page.
