With the latest evolution-data-server 2.22.2-0ubuntu2 I get a similar behaviour as described above.

To debug it I did the following:

1. evolution --force-shutdown
2. GROUPWISE_DEBUG=1 /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-data-server-2.22
3. Started evolution and tried to compose an e-mail

-> The evolution-data-server crashed (cp. evolution.log attachment)

Workaround:

I found out that if I deactivate the option "Copy book content locally for offline operation" in the "Address Book Properties" of the "Novell GroupWise Address Book" everything works fine!
