The problem is not evolution. Is just a problem with the locales changes
in Debian Woody. You should try to define either LC_ALL, or LANG
somewhere in your global configuration.

See what a 
$ locale
returns and make sure you are not using a "C" locale.

To fix it, create (or change if you have it already) the file
/etc/environment with contents like this:

LC_ALL=es_ES
LC_MESSAGES=es_ES

This is of course for spanish, but changing it to sv_SE (I don't know if
this is the definition for your language) should also work.

BTW, you should also regenerate the locales, if you don't have the sv_ES
line un comented in /etc/locale.gen, do it, and run
# locale-gen
to regenerate the locales

Another thing, make sure /etc/environment has read priviledges.
