Actually it's fine to change dconf values while Evolution is running.
In fact in many cases when you tweak a value in the Preferences window,
Evolution picks up the new value by reacting to the change notification
from dconf.

For this particular key I recently replaced the free-form string value
with a set of choices - and have been doing so for other similar keys -
to try and make dconf tweaking even more foolproof.
