I cloned the bug:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=393819
These crashes did not happen with Evolution 2.5, but then editing and
writing in Hebrew was buggy and the Hebrew speller never worked for me.
At least, after installing Ubuntu with Evolution 2.8 everything worked
well for a week or so.

It never happened to me with any Evolution version that I used in the
past 2 and half years.

These are not different from the minor bugs that you can find at almost
any decent and complex program. You cannot blame Evolution for that.

And who says that Kmail and Thunderbird have not similar bugs or people
that some time lost their messages and or storage? The problems that I´m
experiencing are related with spelling and editing and no mail editor is
100% perfect in that if you include html, ctl and encoding.

Yeah, and Lynx for surfing the web to avoid, pop- ups, flash intros,
malaware, etc. or even Telnet to keep layout compatibility...:P
Just jocking:)

Which service? 
Gmail. Many people lost their messages and accounts due a server problem
a couple of months ago.
Yahoo! A bunch of publicity, unnecessary windows, security issues, bad
encoding support and changes of police every couple of months.
Hotmail. In general lines as Yahoo!, but with a record mark in the
number of cracked and stolen accounts.
Reminds the rest of the services that are basically the same as the
above, but with less user friendly interfaces most of the time.
