I ditched Evolution during the 2.0 series of cruft.. and have been
doing nothing but converting people to Thunderbird who are with FC5.
As far as I can tell Evolution-2.6 is a pain in the butt with more
pain than gain.

If beagle is dependant on it, then maybe it would be better if someone
figured out a replacement on beagle than keeping evolution. beagle is
also on our list of removal due to its "I eat batteries" on laptops
(the major users of Fedora it seems here in our environment).
