Depends what you mean by "shut down". The shutdown utility on Linux
sends a signal which processes can trap and gives them a little time to

application should never get into an inconsistent state because of the
system being shut down, and in fact I haven't seen Evo misbehaving in
this way.

But Evo takes a long time to exit (30 seconds or so) as it waits until
exit time to purge and write out all mail folders.  Most distros don't
give processes nearly this long to exit.
