Description Glynn Foster 2005-09-12 09:01:14 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Evolution seems to hang when fetching mail from /var/spool/mail/gman. I use
fetchmail to grab mail from an IMAP server, and put it into
/var/spool/mail/gman. When I click on send and receive Evolution hangs,
presumably waiting for a lock to release.

It doesn't hang the user interface - I can still switch mailboxes and read mail.

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
Happens periodically - can't identify what factors cause it to happen.

This issue has been fixed on both head and on gnome-2.12 branch. Could you check
