If the last thing you can see before it crashes is the IMAP syncing routine, have you tried to disable this account? > The thing is, this doesn't happen on other accounts on this desktop, > re-installation doesn't work, and I already cleared all evolution > related settings and mail inside my home directory.

What DE are you running?) or you're having problems with a specific account settings (it happens when you add any type of account -pop3, imap, local mailbox- or just crashes with one of them?). > I tried to obtain some kind of backtrace as suggested on [1], by running > evolution from gdb.
