My evolution mail client crashed (while connecting to Exchange) and now I
can't get any evo component to start. If I start from the taskbar, the
spinning cursor shows for a minute, then dies. If I start from the
command line ("evolution --component=mail") it reports "CalDAV Eplugin
starting up ...", then seems to hang forever. It doesn't matter what
component I try to start.
If I ^C the command-line start, no evo process shows, but after the
timeout from the taskbar start, a process shows running "evolution
--component=mail". No window ever opens, though.
Is there a lock file someplace that needs to be deleted? Or something
else? Is ./.gconfd/saved_state the key, and if so, how can it be safely
repaired? Can I repair it without losing data?
TIA. I didn't have any e-mail there, but I really need my calendar back!
