As suggested in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/63715/comments/16, this might be due to broken gnutls stuff.
Anyway: Adding STACKTRACE keyword.

I do not believe in gnutls, it's just uid is empty/NULL, thus it crashes. See frame #8 of Thread 2.

Created attachment 112135 [details] [review]
proposed eex patch (preventing)

for evolution-exchange;

I remember we debug this (remotely) with someone, and if I recall correctly, Exchange was really returning an invalid component, with empty UID. Where it got there is a question, but it definitely came from the server.

Thus this patch checks for such situations and makes necessary things to not crash there. I would like to propose that as "fixing this bug", if you agree.

BTW, I thought such patch was committed already in code some time back, but it seems like not, somehow.

Here is the same problem.

so: fedora 9
evolution version: 2.22.2
evolution-exchange version: 2.22.1

Additional data:
- Fedora 8 with and without updates, works without problems
- Fedora 9 with and without updates, crash with exchange accounts

(Exchange Accounts on Fedora 9 never worked)

Committed to trunk. Committed revision 1683.
Committed to gnome-2-22. Committed revision 1684.

The patch is for evolution-exchange finally, I named it here wrong.
