[ale] Corrupted dictionary files

You probably have a dictionary under a .evolution subdirectory of your 
home directory.  Normally system files are not modified by users during 
a normal user's use of a program.  Usually the program creates a subset 
of files available inside a hidden subdirectory of your home directory.  
I don't use evolution or ximian or gnome so haven't a clue how that 
works.  Maybe someone can explain where those files would exist.
