Re: Evolution Error: Cannot activate component OAFIID

Never mind. Found the solution after googled - reboot. It would be nice
if I don't need to suspect that I need to reboot whenever an application
is not working. 

I'm glad to recover my emails. Thank you for your attention.

 I ran into a similar problem, and was able to solve the problem by 

1. Killing X 
2. Killing any leftover evolution-* processes that were running 
3. Removing /tmp/orbit-USER 
4. Restarting X and evolution. 

Hope this helps!
