Thank you very much for your reply, before I dash off to figure out
how to get a back trace, I need to add the following.

For clarification evolution is now not freezing, I can click create
new contact and nothing happens.

Also if I have the preview pane open in mail view after a while (not
quite sure what triggers it) the status bar at the bottom of the
screen reports "Formatting Message....." and never gets any further -
once this happens the only way to stop evolution is to end it forcibly
xkill, ctrl-alt-backspace.

I have also experimented with changing to using a more standardised locale

LANG="C"
LC_ALL="C"

in lieu of en_NZ.iso88591

Didnt apparently help.

I have checked and evolution (or is it e-d-s) recreates
~/.evolution/addressbook/local/system/addressbook.db on startup if it
is missing.

I am also seeing the following in a terminal when I switch from the
addressbook to the mail in the evolution shell.  Can anyone shed any
light on the meaning of the following?

(evolution-2.2:4839): eab-widgets-CRITICAL **: eab_view_discard_menus:
assertion `view->view_instance' failed

Off to google for back tracing ....
