Hi Bob,

Thanks for the feedback. At least I am not totally alone.

My set up is quite different though. I am only accessing my email via 
POP3 and it crashes before I even start Evo up (in fact, before any of 
my Gnome panels come up).
I have checked the obvious source for session applications 
(~/.gnome2/session) but that makes no mention of e-d-s at all.
You did give me an idea though ... it might not be email related at all 
but rather the other groupware parts (like you are experiencing with 
your Exchange connection). I have it accessing a remote calendar that 
changed server names recently. I am not sure that I updated that. 
Pointing to a bogus calendar might cause some grief. I will look at that 
when I get home.
