Fortunately, it is.
/usr/libexec/evolution/1.4/killev
The fact that it's still necessary to include it is one reason evolution is
not my primary MUA ;-)
killev is deprecated. The recommended command is:
evolution --force-shutdown
BTW, I use Evo 1.4.5 about 10 hours a day with *lots* of email. I only
have to use that command about twice a month. The usual culprit is when
there is a network connectivity issue (Comcast grrrrr), Evo can block
for awhile and I don't have the patience to wait.
