error messages that appear every time I run evolution.  If I delete

Thanks! 

sounds like "i read that the demolition of my house will fix the problem
that my front door does not close anymore." to me. where did you read
that?

the folder ~/evolution was used until version 1.4.x to store most of all
evolution settings and data.

since 2.0.x, evolution stores your data in
        ~/.evolution/
your account settings in
        ~/.gconf/apps/evolution
and your passwords in
        ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution

so removing ~/.evolution it *may* fix your problems, but it will also
definitely remove all your email, calendar data, contacts, tasks and
memos.

interested in posting your error messages here? perhaps we can help. :-)

cheers,
andre
