Subject: Crash of exchange backend when typing name into To: line

Distribution: Ubuntu 6.06 (dapper)
Package: Evolution
Severity: major
Version: GNOME2.14.1 2.6.x
Gnome-Distributor: Ubuntu
Synopsis: Crash of exchange backend when typing name into To: line
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Contacts [was: Addressbook]
Bugzilla-Version: 2.6.x
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.14.1)
Description:
Description of the crash:

Evolution reports that exchange has crashed when the user types a
persons name into the To: line. In the case, the name of the person was
an address not found in the global catalog or within the user's local
contacts.

Steps to reproduce the crash:
1. Load evolution with an exchange account; ensure auto completion of
contacts comes from local, (Contacts and Global Address Catalog) on
exchange server
2. Control-N for new message (in inbox view)
3. Possibly optional: Change account from exchange address to remote
LDAP address (in this case, my home mail server)
4. Type a person's email address into the To line (note that evolution
appears to look up the contacts, then crashes before giving any
options)

Expected Results:

No crashing. The product should be stable.

How often does this happen?

So frequently that using the exchange connector no longer seems viable.
Because of this use habit, crashes occur several times per day.
Switching from exchange to LDAP solves the problem.
