Description Hubert Figuiere (:hub) 2005-01-25 18:35:23 UTC

It crash while attempting to display the last selected message. It
initially crashed whil displaying a message. It since crash on startup.

The error message in the console is 

evolution-mail-ERROR **: file em-format-html-display.c: line 1223
(efhd_attachment_button): assertion failed: (info->forward == NULL)
aborting...

according to jpr and notzed it is a malformed message bug.

I'll attach the tarball of the cached folder (message is store in IMAP)

guilty message is 27291.

removing the cmeta did work around the bug.

thanks to jpr for the help.

Comment 3 Not Zed 2005-03-04 05:08:02 UTC

Hmm, does this still crash?  I just tried now, copying it to a local
message, and it worked fine.

even if it is a malformed message, it shouldn't crash (which is why
i'm bumping it up).

Comment 4 Not Zed 2005-03-17 07:49:50 UTC

needinfo'ing, reopen if information is added, or close if fixed

Comment 5 vivek jain 2005-08-23 12:02:58 UTC

Closing it, re-open it if reproduced (preferably with stacktraces).
