I had a problem with evolution following a power outage last week. Thanks to everyone for their help so far. I have a little more information about the problem now.
I can send/receive messages, but only in the time between starting evolution and the first time I attempt to open a folder. When I open evolution and click send/receive right away, it displays the messages downloading, and updates the number of messages in each folder. However, once I click on a folder in an attempt to open it, the send/receive doesn't work anymore.
Just in case anyone missed my email last week, following a power outage (which rebooted my computer and the local server) I have been unable to access my mail folders in evolution. When opened in a new window they only write (No Folder Displayed) on a gray background. The non-mail folders (contacts, calendar, tasks) work fine.
Does this information help anyone?
Thanks, Grant

No probably not, you'd get different errors I think.
Does running this (in a terminal) produce any output?
gconftool-2 -R /apps/evolution/mail
Could you attach it to a private email to me if it does.
If it doesn't then gconf is really unhappy about something, and i'm not sure where you'd go from here.
