glib symbols would be nice too...
Comment 2 Srinivasa Ragavan 2009-02-13 05:09:32 UTC
Stanislav, I had fixed it, rather hacked it not to crash, if the message is deleted on the cache. It shouldn't crash for you anymore.
Comment 3 Srinivasa Ragavan 2009-02-13 05:25:07 UTC
You shouldn't see it on 2.24.4 surely.
Comment 4 Akhil Laddha 2010-03-30 06:48:23 UTC
Please use improved IMAP support IMAPX (IMAP+) which is a part of upcoming evolution 2.30.0

This version is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any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 Stanislav Brabec 2010-03-30 13:26:09 UTC
I don't see this crash any more and bug 361145 does not happen any more in its hanging behavior.
