Do the folders have icons?  If so, then it means that the mail component
is crashing on startup for some reason...  Try launching it in its own
terminal ("evolution-mail") before launching the app and see what it
says before quitting.

Otherwise, it might mean that the power outage messed up something on
your file system and now some bits are missing.  In that case, try to
remove and then re-install the Evolution package.
