I seem to be having the same problem with Evolution 2.24.3 under Ubuntu (Gnome version 2.24.1) Linux 2.6.27-11-generic. The problem happens when I'm scrolling up through my inbox. Evolution starts consuming all the CPU and I can hear the disk performing a repetitive action. It wakes up again after about 5 minutes. In the status bar it shows "Retrieving message nnnn (...)" and then it wakes up and displays the message - my inbox is fairly large (about 3500 items).
