Apparently, nothing. I was unaware of the option. I am relatively new
to Linux, and while I definitely know about thngs like --help and man
pages, I did not think to try them, as Evolution comes with its own
help file, and I saw nothing in it to indicate forced shutdown as a
possibility.

Thanks for the tip.
