The first one GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 769204 says:
Status:         RESOLVED NOTGNOME

The second one  Bug 1398806 - Weird rendering for Evolution on
Wayland doesn't seem to apply.

In the past when evolution blocked on gpg messages it was because I
didn't have the correct url to the cert for the sig or encryption. 
could that still be the case here?

I have also noticed that now when I click reply, and then minimize the
evolution window, the reply no longer is interactive.  This is new
behavior with F25 because I could do that with all prior versions of
fedora.  But I suspect that some interaction with wayland/evolution is
the issue.
