Other information:
I am pretty sure, this has also happened to me in Evolution 2.24.

It would be nice, if you could assign this bug to the right component and adapt the title to something useful for the developers.


Thanks,

Paul

I cann't reproduce in 2.27.4. I guess, it's fixed in bug 535516.
Comment 2 André Klapper 2009-07-31 18:34:55 UTC 
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but we are happy to tell you that the problem has already been fixed. It should be solved in the next software version. You may want to check for a software upgrade.
