Not Zed - Thanks again for your assistance on this issue.. As per your request: gdb evolution-mail (gdb) r (and wait a while while it starts up) Then when it gets into that state, go back to gdb and type ctrl-c and then (gdb) thread apply all bt And send me the output of that. Actually it would be better to create a bug on bugzilla.ximian.com and assign it to notzed@ximian.com and attach the info there. The results are: [New Thread 11276 (LWP 32082)] EBook-Message: Use score for "pgsadmin@web.ca" is now 13.222455 sending : EHLO [192.168.1.21] received: 250-tomts19-srv.bellnexxia.net received: 250-HELP received: 250-PIPELINING received: 250-DSN received: 250-8BITMIME This server supports 8bit MIME received: 250 SIZE 10485760 sending : MAIL FROM: <mike@openconcept.ca> received: 250 Sender <mike@openconcept.ca> Ok sending : RCPT TO: <pgsadmin@web.ca> received: 250 Recipient <pgsadmin@web.ca> Ok sending : DATA received: 354 Ok Send data ending with <CRLF>.<CRLF> sending : \r\n.\r\n [New Thread 12301 (LWP 32219)] received: +OK POP3 calcutta2.flora.ca v2000.70rh server ready sending : CAPA received: +OK Capability list follows: received: TOP received: LOGIN-DELAY 180 received: UIDL received: STLS received: USER received: SASL LOGIN received: . sending : USER mike-pop received: +OK User name accepted, password please sending : PASS xxxx received: +OK Mailbox open, 0 messages sending : STAT received: +OK 0 0 sending : QUIT received: +OK Sayonara setting as body text: ----- <PRE>http://ca.news.yahoo.com/020622/6/n86j.html</PRE> ----- impl_event = delete impl_event = command_after impl_event = delete EBook-Message: Use score for "carol@flora.org" is now 147.000000 received: 421 tomts19-srv.bellnexxia.net Lost connection to [64.230.112.225] sending : MAIL FROM: <mike@openconcept.ca> sending : RCPT TO: <carol@flora.org> Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.

it looks like your SMTP server (or tcp connection?) is pretty flaky from the looks of this bug report and your other bug report about the same thing (which seemed to get disconnected at a different point).

I hear you that it is likely something messed up with their SMTP server. However, there are 60,000+ users using this SMTP server and I've talked to lots of their techies in the last two weeks. No similar reports of problems have been reported. They have no known problems that they know of or that interrupt the use of all of the users sending out in a windows platform... Also, there needs to be a better way to deal with smtp errors than evolution presently manages. If it doesn't succeed sending it should at some point time out and try again.. Finally a related point - evolution should save messages that are being edited every minute (like you do) AND also when it is sent (in case the sent fails and bugs up evolution).. this way I wouldn't be loosing the last minute of my email every time this happens. Mike ps. Really like evolution & Ximian.. This is the first major problem I've had since I started using it.. Wanted to support it and thus became a Red Carpet Express member.. I'm thinking of dropping my ISP, but don't think this should be required to use evolution.
