Hi.

Since upgrading to gnome 2.16, evolution has been very unstable. This
occurs on two systems (notebook and desktop) since upgrading (both
FreeBSD 6.1)

Situation - boot system, log in, fire up evolution, everything runs
fine. If, however, I exit evolution, then re-launch, it sits there
hanging... the message on the message bar is "refreshing folder". This
occurs every time. If I kill all evolution processes (data-server,
exchange-storage, alarm-notify) it does not help. Only a reboot does
it...

Has anyone else noted this? Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Other than that, gnome 2.16 looks and feels great.
