Ah, sorry I'm using a different version.

If I recall, when I first posted the bug report, I was using Sarge. I am
now using etch, and the following versions of the evolution packages:
ii  evolution                       2.6.3-6
ii  evolution-common                2.6.3-6
ii  evolution-data-server           1.6.3-5
ii  evolution-data-server-common    1.6.3-5
ii  evolution-plugins               2.6.3-6

regards,
