This trace is useless since there are no debugging symbols.  You need to
rebuild Evolution (and possible e-d-s) with debugging symbols, then get
the full backtrace.

In general, don't use bug-buddy to get stack traces.  Instead, run
Evolution with:

env GNOME_DISABLE_CRASH_DIALOG=1 evolution

And then it should produce a core file when it crashes.  Run gdb against
the core.

I don't see this here.  Of course, I'm on i386, and I'm using IMAP.
There may be a problem with what ever protocol you're using, a 64-bit
problem, or both.  In any event, it doesn't sound specific to FreeBSD.
You might want to search through Ximian's Bugzilla, and file a new bug
if you don't find anything relevant.
