The Dapper version of Evolution crashed on the same email. With the old version, the crash could be reproduced 8 times out of 10 by opening and closing the first image and then opening the second. The same usage pattern was tried with the new version, but only worked on the first attempt.

The email consists of 4 jpeg images and one bmp. Details courtesy of
ImageMagick/identify:

JPEG 606x800 DirectClass 99kb 
JPEG 518x300 DirectClass 46kb 
JPEG 1025x559 DirectClass 175kb 
JPEG 551x223 DirectClass 26kb 
BMP 297x890 PseudoClass 256c 262kb 

The email itself has been forwarded multiple times.

Not at all urgent. Only one mail affected so far. Workarounds aplenty.

Markus, thanks for all these details! Unfortunately the stacktrace does not have any hints about the real cause of the crash and does not help in debugging this issue.

However, according to the description this is the same issue as bug 333864,
which is fixed in Evolution 2.8.1.1.


Just in case you can reproduce this crash later, please consider installing
debugging packages [1], which help a lot in tracking down the crash.  Thanks!

Also, please feel free to report any further bugs you find.  Thanks!


[1] debugging packages for evolution, evolution-data-server and gtkhtml,
    plus debugging packages for some basic GNOME libs. More details can
    be found here:
