Perhaps I can shed some light on this, although I am stuck at
evo 2.12.3 as supplied by RedHat 5.6.
I found that when I saved my desktop configuration using the
gnome preferences, evolution would always come up in some
undesirable configuration.  After a bunch of inquiries on
this list, where I never did find out where config info like
window size is kept, one day I shut down evolution before
saving the configuration, logging off, and powering down.
Now I just leave it that way.  So when I start up, there
is no evolution window on screen.  Then I click the
evolution launcher button in the panel at the bottom of
the screen and evolution starts up just the way I left
it.  I shut down seldom enough that this workaround is OK
for me.
   I don't know if this is true with more recent versions;
I'd love to hear whether others have had this experience,
and if so, again whether anyone knows where this saved
desktop info is kept so it could be edited manually.
[Yes, I know it is saved in memory when gnome is running--
I tried to find and edit it from a command-line screen
with gnome shut down and never got anywhere that way either.]
