Hello, hmm, seems to me as I'm wrong. I'm sorry for my quick thought.
Anyway, you can disable the preview panel in Evolution (View->Preview->Show message preview (Ctrl+M)) and then select and delete it from Evolution too. If it crashes because it remembered the last selected message as this bad, then run 'evolution --disable-preview', if your version supports it. I'm not sure since which version it is implemented there exactly. If you can file a bug against Evolution and attach there such email in mbox format (stripped private info from there), then it would be great. (Maybe such bug already exists, I do not know, so please look over bugzilla.gnome.org, under Evolution's bugs.)
