evolution-data-server still was running.

That's a meaningless statement. The evolution front end - what you
call "evolution" gets all it's data from e-d-s. e-d-s can provide
information to other (gnome) packages. It's not "on" e-d-s, it's n
Hi Ralf
That would explain it if the data was on the evolution-data-server as
that was not deleted.

Looks like it may have fixed its self
The last start up wanted permission to use maildir instead of mbox
format
the offending directory in cache is now

I know Andre has pointed to all the evo data files
Last attempt was

evolution --force-shutdown
rm -rf ~/.local/share/evolution
rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/evolution
rm -rf ~/.cache/evolution
rm -rf ~/.config/evolution

It would be helpful if you could elaborate and be specific about the
actual problem you're facing in Evolution itself (what data? emails?
which email account type? etc

BUT that data is backed up somewhere else, you can deleted the cache,
but as soon as evo is restarted exactly the same files are restored to

There is a backup copy of the cache that evo use
