Description Guy Lunardi 2013-08-20 16:50:30 UTC 
Hello,

this crash doesn't happen everytime. But often when I drag a file to be attached to an email, Evolution crashes.

I caught a stack trace of it today:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Probably already fixed for 3.10 with the thread-safety improvements I added to attachments.

NEEDINFO until 3.9 or 3.10 can be tested.

Cool, I will try on 3.9 (most likely 3.10) as soon as I get a chance.

Thanks for the information Matthew

I've just got a similar crash, with 3.9.90. This is like bug #702958, thus I mark this as a duplicate of it.

Upgraded to 3.9.90. Haven't been able to reproduce it myself yet but will keep using 3.9.90 as my main client for now.
