Ok, it happened again.  I had Evo "Mail" open for about 24 hours,
and suddenly, my interactive response time dropped like a stone.
Went to an xterm, and saw that Evo's CPU, VIRT & RES usage had
spiked.

Some info:
Mail stored in an IMAP server
All outgoing email is signed using GPG
There are 58 local Contacts
No tasks
No calendar items
