FWIW, I've just upgraded to 22.04 and the version of Evolution bundled with it (3.44.0-1ubuntu1) doesn't suffer from this problem; so it affects 21.10 only.

The composition window is blank. I'm on 21.10. As a proof of concept, I have rolled back the relevant parts of USN-5394-1 as follows: 1. Restored libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.55.9 and libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0.so.18.19.11 (in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu) from a ZFS snapshot. 2. Re-established soft-links `libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37` and `libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0.so.18` to point to above versions. Does this bug belong somewhere else? If so, please guide me; I've raised it here because of the clear regression impact. I can't really choose between the vulnerabilities in USN-5394-1 and being able to write email...
