GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 311682
Evolution + SpamAssassin = trouble?
Last modified: 2005-08-02 05:47:39 UTC
Distribution: SuSE Linux 9.3 (i586) Package: Evolution Severity: blocker Version: GNOME2.10.0 2.2.1 Gnome-Distributor: SUSE Synopsis: Evolution + SpamAssassin = trouble? Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Bugzilla-Version: 2.2.1 BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.10.0) Description: Description of the crash: After upgrade to SUSE 9.3, Evolution crashes constantly. I have all my mail stored in maildir folders (using offlineimap to fetch the mails). Apparently, all is good until I try to filter the mail using either the built-in junk filter or my SA setup (spamc -c returns > 0). This sometimes completes without a crash, sometimes not. When it does complete, Evo crashes a few seconds/minutes later. Restarting Evo after a filtering operation will often result in a crash after another few minutes. Rebooting and starting Evo without doing any filtering is apparently pretty safe, and does not seem to result in a crash. Steps to reproduce the crash: 1. Update SUSE to 9.3 from 9.2; apply any on-line updates 2. Set up Evo to use maildir + spamassassin 3. Filter Expected Results: Evo does not crash How often does this happen? Several times per hour; maybe 10-15 times per working day.

this is nothing to do with spam filtering, it is just an indexer crash. i can't find the bug this is a duplicate of, but closing on that assumption. to workaround, try removing the '*ibex*' files corresponding to the maildir folders. (of course, it may be that spam filtering has bugs which causes this other one ...)
