Hi,
you forgot to install debuginfo packages I asked for, thus this is
rather semi-blind guess, but from what I see then there are like 3
accounts waiting for their credentials (can be keyring related), and
the main thread is completely busy with drawing the spinners in the
folder tree (what a pita that gtk+ spinners are that resource
expensive), you might see higher CPU usage too, which is caused by
these spinners, thus gtk+ issue. I do not see any thread which would
show the ongoing 'Generating message list' operation, but it can be
that it's waiting for the account to be connected. Once upon a time,
the spinners were that resource expensive that they blocked other
operations which required idle processing starve. The evolution(-data-
server) code received some changes to workaround this issue. Maybe you
found another way to reproduce it. Nonetheless, it doesn't explain why
it worked with your changes below.

Good.

If you renamed the ~/.config/evolution/mail, then it's okay, because
that folder contains only some configuration files. The mails from On
This Computer/ are stored in ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/
folder. More can be found here:
https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/data-storage.html.en
By the way, do things break again if you rename the mail.old/ back to
mail/?
Bye,
Milan
