I thought the same, but then realized XE was "rock solid" because I
wasn't using the calendar function like I was at the beginning. Rather,
I was only using the mail client part. Try using the calendar and
contacts functions, then switch back to the in-box. XE will then hang on
exit almost every time!

This makes sense to me because I have also noticed that XE will not
automatically remember that alarmed calendar dates have already been
alarmed when backing up and restoring the evolution folder. After it has
gone through all of the old dates, this function apparently isn't called
anymore.

The killev function will clean it up though.

Cheers,

Chris
