First I was running 6.3 but I upgraded to 7.0 thinking that it might of solve the problem but it didn't.  What amazes me is, I've got ubuntu installed on the same machine and it only takes 3 seconds to start, also it only takes 3 seconds to start in windows.  Evolution running like this is completely worthless.  Any ideas what might be causing this?  Please respond to my email address also.

As far I'm concerned evolution is out of my list of programs, I still have my doubts about the real reason as to why it takes so long to open.  In reality there's no real reason as to why a program will take so long to open, if that's the case evolution will loose a lot of users in the FreeBSD community.
For me evolution takes 3 minutes and 20 seconds to start up...
It's sick....can't use it anymore.

ofcourse it's a "bug", from ~8 seconds to minutes with the same setup...
..sad
