I was using:

$ rpm -q evolution evolution-data-server
evolution-2.32.20100914-4.5.i586
evolution-data-server-2.32.20100914-8.16.i586

Seeing there that fortify_fail, could be compilation flags and/or gcc related here?

Downstream bug report about the same with 2.32.0:

valgrind log from bug #637836 shows that there was done some access out of bounds when reading indexes, which might be caused by a crash while data was about to save on a disk. I would try to remove all indexes from subfolders of
~/.local/share/evolution/mail
(*.ibex* files) and made it recreate them from scratch. There might be done some test for out-of-bounds reading, but I'm afraid it'll not fix the root problem on this.

Please make sure your ~/.evolution is gone, as the migration process to XDG folder structure didn't succeeded for you or you run also 2.30.x or earlier version after its migration to 2.32.x.

Also see this issue several times a day with Debian's 2.32.3-1 package. Will try the method from the last comment.

Tried Milan's advice and cleared *.ibex* files. Still getting crash several times a day. The backtraces look similar to the one from this bug report  :(

I get a crash when I try to send to certain addresses, but not if I just use the plain email address.

Example:
crash with: Doug Butabi <doug@butabi.com>
no crash: doug@butabi.com

This only happens for certain addresses, not all I use.

Let me know if you need further info.

Is it still with 2.32.x or any more recent version, like 3.2.3? The 2.32.x is quite outdated, thus it is better to test with current stable, which is 3.2.3. It would be good to get updated backtrace, if it's reproducible there as well.

It is version 3.2.2, running in Ubuntu oneiric. I'll do a backtrace as soon as I have time.

Thanks for a bug report. I'm closing this as obsolete, but feel free to reopen or comment in case you can reproduce with the current 3.30.x stable series.
