I believe the problem has to do with beagle.  If you don't mind
completely redoing your index, try removing ~/.beagle (when logged out
of X).  The problem only cropped up for me when I switched from
Thunderbird (which isn't indexed by beagle) to Evolution (which is).
When I disable indexing, the problem disappears, and it seems that it
also goes when you remove the ~/.beagle directory.
