GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 618076
evolution freezes while viewing e-mail with attachment
Last modified: 2010-09-30 05:26:20 UTC
Hello, if for example, I view an e-mail with a big attachment which I sent to someone, evolution tried to load all the attachment file instead of loading only it´s link. This can be very annoying when the attachment is big. Verified this in gmail(acessed inside evolution of course), not sure if it happens in other mails(hotmail, yahoo...)
Probablydup? you mean duplicate and not dupe I hope André Klapper. I´m still waiting for someone, so we can work together in this problem. Sorry if my problem description confused you or something
Sorry about last commment, I read in keywords what probablydup means. I was kind of hot headed, sorry again
I think that Evolution could have two possible behaviours (maybe by a configuration option): either download the attachment on the background (while you read the text, for example), or download the attachment only when you request it (cause sometimes you don't care about the attachment), but in none of the cases it should freeze while downloading (as it happens at least up to version 2.28.3).
