I've tried to recreate this with a console open without success. There has only been this one crash for me.

Vibhav, are you sure you don't want to try to apply the upstream patch for this?

I tracked the patch to use as http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit/?h=gnome-3-4&id=936a4883a16512bc8a7340e41e790442a54844ca ; which is the exact same thing as the patch Milan attached to the upstream bug, but already include patch comments. I gave a UDW session about applying such patches which can be followed almost verbatim in this case, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/devweek1201/IncorporatingUpstreamChanges .

This bug was fixed in the package evolution - 3.2.3-0ubuntu6

---------------
evolution (3.2.3-0ubuntu6) precise; urgency=low

  * debian/libevolution.preinst: if upgrading from versions prior to 3.2.0;
    kill all instances of evolution-alarm-notify to avoid an unreadable error
    message about state inconsistencies. (LP: #965686)
  * debian/patches/git_crash_in_mail_sidebar_936a488.patch: avoid crashing in
    the sidebar code when handling multiple windows. (LP: #650677)
  * debian/patches/alarm-notify-nodisplay.patch: don't show the alarm notifier
    in gnome-session-properties (add NoDisplay=true to the .desktop file).
