I'm running Fedora 25, with current upgrades, on an HP laptop (uname
-a: 4.9.14-200.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 13 19:26:40 UTC 2017 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

I normally use KDE 5 as my desktop, but I use Evolution to read mail.

Recently, and shortly after a recent "sudo dnf upgrade," I ran into a
problem in which I could not reply to emails in Evolution.  I could
fetch and read mail, but when I tried to reply, either the window would
come up greyed out and I could not enter text, or I could type a few
letters and it would hang.

This repeated for a couple of days, including various reboots and such.
 I didn't get around to running it from a terminal, so I don't have
error messages there, but there were no messages in any logs.

Then I decided to see if the same error occurred in GNOME, since it's a
 GNOME program.  I brought up GNOME, and it worked fine.  Hmmm....

So, I logged in using KDE to run it from terminal and look for error
messages -- and the problem went away!  Now it works fine.

I'm just trying to understand why running it in GNOME would fix it in
KDE.  Anybody know?
