I see this sporadically as well... I need to actually file it since I
haven't had a chance to look at it more closely yet.

Hmmm, haven't seen this one.  Note that evolution --force-shutdown does
the same thing killev used to.  If you see this, you might want to

The ordering is alphabetical for me but with INBOX always first.   I
wonder if it's just using the order given back by the IMAP server.  What
