Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. This is very likely the same bug as bug 324168. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 324168 ***
>> This is very likely the same bug as bug 324168 Are you sure? Bug 324168 (Evolution crashed when disabled configured IMAP account) deals with a disabled configured IMAP server - I never configured an IMAP server. I am running with the standard Unix mail. -- John
The traces are quite different Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. please install libcamel package at least
Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the information asked for. Thanks!
Sorry folks, I don't have time to debug this by running a special version with symbols - I use my Linux workstation to perform work. As a result, I don't use evolution that often. The bug report was submitted for your benefit, not mine.
It is as easy as we can arrange it; running a debug version should not affect your productivity at all, and you may deinstall it afterwards if you wish. Given the lack of (unpaid) manpower of volunteers we are really happy if users help us improve free software. Besides, we have no instructions on how to trigger the crash. If we could, somebody will produce a detailed trace that will tremendously help fixing the problem. Thank you for your efforts.

Of course, but my employer doesn't pay me to debug someone else's software - if this was my home computer, it would be a different story. > Besides, we have no instructions on how to > trigger the crash.

This was right after installing Evolution and using the Exchange mail store for the first time. I have a very large inbox (over 5K mail items) on the Exchange Server - I think since then, I've I've installed an updated Exchange plugin - maybe that helped... in any case, with my limited use, I haven't duplicated this problem myself in a while. -- John
