If it doesn't crash, then feel free to move this under bug #334444, it's the same issue as that yours. Btw, opening 1.3MB mail will really take some time to prepare for GtkHTML. I only wonder how will WebKit (or what's that name) handle this...

Attached mbox imports and renders fast, evolution doesn't crash against 2.30.0 so i will close the bug.
