[Evolution] Evolution died - need help!

["Auerbach, Steven P." <STEVEN P AUERBACH saic com>]

All
Yesterday afternoon Evolution started to crash, and now it won't start up.
I'm running Evo 2.4.1 on Kubuntu Breezy 5.10. The only thing I know that I
have done recently is emptied the trash (which apparently compacts the Inbox
file) and also created some new folders and moved old mail to them.

I'm now dead in the water on my Linux box, and I am composing this email on
MS Outlook.

A stack trace obtained using gdb is below.

HELP!!
Steve
