This version is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any
further security or bug fix updates.
The current stable GNOME and Evolution version is 2.30.

Can you please check again whether this issue still happens in Evolution 2.28
or 2.30 and update this report by adding a comment and changing the "Version"
field? Thanks a lot.

Again thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed
for the version you originally used here.

Without feedback this report will be closed as INCOMPLETE in 6 weeks.
Comment 5 godlark 2010-04-24 08:36:02 UTC 
No. Evolution 2.30 works correctly.
Comment 6 Akhil Laddha 2010-04-26 03:37:09 UTC 
Thanks.
Comment 7 Milan Crha 2011-10-24 09:13:43 UTC

Confirming, I can reproduce this crash if I cheat on the camel's side by delaying the store_get_folder_thread() for long enough to be able to close a newly created mail window before the folder is opened (create new window Ctrl+Shift+W, select folder to show, close window before the camel_store_open_folder() is finished).

I've fixed this by added a check on the shell_view variable, which was NULL due to its associated shell window had been closed meanwhile, and by added runtime checks on the MessageList object validity in public API functions of it.
