Priority: critical
Version: GNOME2.2.2 1.4.3

Synopsis: Adding a contact crashes evolution
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Calendar
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.2.0.1)
Description:
Description of Problem:
When I attempt to add a contact to my Contacts list, evolution
segfaults.  This does not happen *every* time, and I cant notice a
specific trend in entries that will crash it vs. those that don't,
however it happens about 80% of the time.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Start Evolution
2. Enter contact manager
3. Add a contact, filling in the requested fields.  (Usually name,
email, phone, and mobile in my case)

Actual Results:
Seg fault.

Expected Results:
Contact should be added.

How often does this happen?
Approximately 80% of the time.
