> evolution-shell-WARNING **: CORBA exception IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 when requesting URI -- 
> evolution:/local/Inbox

followed by a segmentation fault:

I tried a couple more oaf-slays, killevs, and moving aside my evolution 
directory, all without much luck.

Does anyone have any suggestions ?

I guess it's back to vanilla 0.10 for me :(.
