(This is very old information so may not still be valid, but I've used
it in the past)
There are a couple of Gconf settings to enable filter logging:
/apps/evolution/mail/filters/log = { true | false }
/apps/evolution/mail/filters/logfile = "/path/to/logfile"
You need to used gconf-editor (or whatever it's called now -- I don't
use Gnome so I may be wrong) to set the first of these to True and the
second to the name of a log file. It shouldn't be necessary to restart
Evolution but it can't hurt. Let it run for a while and then look at
the log file to see if anything jumps out.
