If Milan's suggestion (see separate answer) doesn't work out, you can use formail (part of the procmail package) to rewrite the entire mbox file in canonical form. This had interesting results: the resulting mbox is still 2.4gb, but has, according to both Evolution and mutt only 48

Had this problem a few weeks ago, installed Tbird, and Evo started working again. :) But it's back. The GUI loads, but all panes are empty. Mailbox panel only shows search rather than my mailboxes. All buttons and icons are unresponsive. I can close using x which gives me the not responding -
