Add to yout /etc/apt/sources.list the following lines:

deb-src ftp://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty main universe multiverse 
restricted
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-proposed universe main 
multiverse restricted
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-updates universe main 
multiverse restricted

Adjust the FTP site as needed for your country; you most probably do not
need multiverse and restricted, but you will need main and universe.

After that run:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get build-dep evolution # this will load on your machine all needed 
dependencies for a successful build of evolution
mkdir evolution
cd evolution
apt-get source evolution # thsi will get the current Evolution source package

Then play around :-) . You probably want to start finding out all the
places where A4 is specified:

pwd 
~/evolution
grep -R iso_a4 * 2>/dev/null


Then change the occurances of 'iso_a4' to 'na_letter', and you are set. I am 
betting you will find them in the Addressbook, Tasks, etc.

A point: if you are running Firefox 2.0.4, you will have to downgrade to
Filrefox 2.0.3 and libnss 2.0.3 -- I did not find the sources for the
new firefox, and the current Evolution depends on libnss 2.0.3 -- which
depends on Firefox 2.0.3... Do that *before* running 'apt-get build-
dep'.
