evolution does not exit. when you close the application. Its runs an alarm daemon in the background. That will explain why it worked when you "rebooted"

to confirm this, .. if this happens again, ps -ax and kill -15 the process.
As the saying goes ... "You learn something new everyday." Yup, when my X session up, there are 3 evolution daemons a) alarm-notify, b) data-server, and c) exchange-storage.
However, when I terminate my X session these daemons terminate leaving no trace of any evolution related stack in the OS. Therefore I don't think the daemons were the problem because when I created a new user and logged in with that ID, evolution was still crashing.
It has not crashed subsequently. Thx,
