Please do

  grep -C2 gnome-terminal ~/.xsession-errors

Hello,

here is the output of the command you asked for:

** (evolution:5509): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution %s

Because of using czech locale, here is the translation into the english:

** (evolution:5509): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution %s
** (evolution:5509): DEBUG: mailto URL program: evolution

Thanks. Unfortunately, it seems that the output the crash should have caused is not present anymore.
