If any or all of the mail servers support IMAP, use that and
the folders remain stored on the server and are displayed
separately in Evolution, associated with the corresponding
server.  If they don't you could use fetchmail to pull from
the various accounts and deliver to separate accounts on
your own IMAP server, then configure evolution to access
all of them at once (which will display them separately).
The big advantage of using IMAP is that you can access the
same mailboxes and folders from different locations and
different mailers without needing any other conversions.
