I just reloaded the beta and all of the updates last night. What I've
noticed is that killing Evolution with the X causes it to hang on the
next startup. Using File --> Quit causes a normal exit. I haven't had
time to change the defaults for exec-shield, so they are what should be
in the original settings.

Hopefully that sheds some light on the problem.

Cheers,

Chris
