Description Phil Hagelberg 2005-09-15 22:59:34 UTC
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu Breezy Badger

1. Drag an email (or three) from the local "Sent" folder to a remote folder on
an IMAP account
2. While the message is being copied, drag another email from the "Sent" folder
to another remote folder.

Pretty much all of X locks up. The cursor remains a 'drag' cursor (looks like a
right angle with a smaller arrow in it.) Apps still run (for instance, gkrellm
still updates) but no keyboard or mouse input is accepted. Switching out of X to
kill evo from the command line was the only way I could get out of it.

Note that this only happens when mail is dragged from local to remote. Dragging
from remote to local works fine.

Works for me. Though I could not faithfully do step 2 because it copies it quite
fast on my machine
Comment 2 Khasim Shaheed 2005-09-16 05:14:09 UTC
Works fine for me too on SuSE 10 Gold Master. I followed both the steps(first i
Dragged 3 mails from local "Sent" folder to a remove folder, While message is
being copied i dragged another mail from the same "Sent" folder to another
remote folder) but X doesn't lockup, the mails are successfully dropped into the
remote folders.

Sounds like it could be an Ubuntu bug... the same thing happens on my Ubuntu laptop.

Is there anything I could do to get more information about the crash?
