Hello Erik, thanks for your answer. I've reviewed the /etc/hosts file and it contains a line for localhost. I've also check the "top" and evolution is in effect, running but I don't know how to know if it is waiting for some I/O. I've also running "ps ax" in that moment and its state contains the flags R(running) l(multithreaded).
I have made another test today. I have opened two windows for composing a message (one after the other). The former hangs the evolution for about 20 seconds, like I have already said, but the second opens in less than a second. Thanks.
