Just pulling at straws here, but...

Have you killed bonobo as well? Shut down the e-d-s backend? Or, to get
rid of almost everything: Rebooted the machine? (Yes, that sounds
scary. ;-)

One last thing that might be worth a try is removing your files in /tmp
when restarting. Dunno though...


To narrow down what hangs exactly, try starting Evo with any other
component than the Mailer. See 'evolution --help' for details. Run Evo
with the Calendar component, for example:

$ evolution -c calendar

Does that make Evo start up again?
