Seems like it might be.  I've been using Evolution for a long time also
and found it very stable until we moved to Exchange.  Not only does
Evolution crash more often it generates a bug report on just about every
exit (and has a acquired a few other annoying habits like multiple
password prompts).  

The Exchange connector also crashes sometimes so although Evolution is
still running it can't connect to the Exchange server.

A few linux users here have moved from Evolution to thunderbird after
being migrated to Exchange (which is ironic when Evolution is the only
linux client our Exchange service officially support).

Maybe things will improve when Evolution can do MAPI.
