That's because the question was originally filed against the yelp source 
package. But since this was a question about Evolution, the source package 
was probably removed (using Edit question). When you clicked on the URL the 
change of context was in effect and it couldn't find the question.

When the question isn't found in the source package, maybe we should check if 
it's available in the distribution and redirect to the proper context. Please 
file a bug about that against the launchpad-answers prodcut if you think this 
is something that should be fixed.
