"Use the source, Luke." ;-)

Seriously, changing the gconf setting _should_ help, but it's probably
not picked up by gconfd (GNOME apps use gconfd to interact with the
gconf settings; gconfd likes to keep stuff in memory instead of
re-parsing XML files).

You might try a "pkill gconfd" on the user's system and then restart
evolution. That _should_ start a new instance of gconfd as well and it
_should_ pick up the changes. (I just confirmed it with gnome-terminal
settings)

Let me know if this works for you.
