        Hi,
I found similar bug reports in GNOME's bugzilla against Evolution, but
all of them were quite old, like from 2.32.x or 3.2.x times.

As a guess, would it be that you keep evolution maximized? Does anything
change, if you unmaximize it and enlarge it by dragging the window
border instead? I recall some changes along that, where restoring size
of a maximized window could have similar side-effects. I do not recall
when exactly landed a fix for that, unfortunately.
