OK, I installed mail-notification-evolution-plugin but I still don't get
any notifications but I can see that the evolution-data-server is not
automatically starting up when I first launch evolution like previous
versions so I suspect that the problem lies somewhere within.

Control-A does work for me but it is (and to my recollection always was)
context sensitive. If you click on a message and then press control-A,
it selects all messages but if you are reading a specific message and
then press Control-A, it selects the contents of that message.

It does change the status from unread to read after 1.5 seconds (per my
preferences).
