I have similar problems with evolution. My exchange connector was working ok with a few crashes every other day, until I installed 2.6.2. After that the exchange portion didn't crash, but maybe that was because every time I clicked into an exchange folder evolution would crash. I did a yum install evolution* out of desperation and installed all the debug and dev packages. So far no problems other than I can't seem to be able to open any bodies shared calenders yet.
