Description maillist 2006-09-18 05:32:35 UTC 
What were you doing when the application crashed?
The application was asking for account passwords every 10 minutes checking for mail. Remember password was already checked. I allowed it to repeat several times. I finally canceled both then went to close evolution as it crashed.

Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.

Also, are you able to reproduce this?

Yes the bug is reproducible, by 
1. opening evolution
2. closing evolution

This stack trace seems to be more verbose. I'm not sure if that is good or not but here you go.

Yes, that stacktrace was perfect. :)  Thanks again.


Just a note, since I am suffering from that crash myself for quite a while already:  This crash is pretty harmless. The only data that may get lost is meta data in the IMAP case -- like read/unread status and such. However, there is an easy workaround for this. Since this data is synced to the server on leaving the folder, one can easily and effectively prevent any (meta) data loss at all by simply "switching forth and back". Actally, just switching the mail folder once before closing Evo will do. HTH
