        Hi,
is it also on FreeBSD or any other system/distro? Is it the same
version as the faulty one, or another (newer/older)?

I think the folder names are synchronized with broken information, thus
the next start they do not change, because the listing is up-to-date
(the folders are updated incrementally, the same as folders' content).
You can see that in the folder-tree file under:

    ~/.cache/evolution/mail/<ews-account-uid>/

When you remove it, the folders will be re-fetched completely.

That corresponds to the error you caught in the debug log. I guess it
happened when you clicked on one of those "(null)" folders.

I'm sorry of all the guessing from my side. I do not have a FreeBSD
machine to try it out here. Maybe there's some glitch in the evo-ews
code, which exhibits only there/with certain compiler flags enabled.
Who knows.

        Bye,
