Comment 1 for bug 82515

Confirmed. Evolution does not even propose EAS as a valid ciphersuite when connecting. The following is the output of a ssldump from a Evolution connection to GMAIL at port 995:

I do not know what ciphersuites are represented by 0xfeff and 0xfefe, since they are (theoretically) reserved and private, respectively.
