I guess this is already fixed. Will check and close the bug if the patch was committed.

Comment 2 Sankar P 2006-07-24 06:16:07 UTC

This is fixed and committed in HEAD. Fejj made a fix for this.

Comment 3 Sankar P 2006-07-24 06:19:27 UTC

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307548 is the reason for this bug. However an extra "if"  is added on Evolution side to handle this until #307548 is fixed.
