Description Milan Crha 2012-06-18 09:55:24 UTC 
Moving this from a downstream bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805927#c21

Using "Save Draft" on composer's close prevent evolution from clean quit.

Steps:
a) run evolution in mailer view and Ctrl+N to create new message
b) write "aaa" into message body
c) press Esc to close the composer window, which shows question
   Discard Changes | Continue Editing | Save Draft
d) Choose Save Draft

Everything looks OK, the composer window is closed, the draft message is saved.

e) close evolution

The window itself is properly closed, it's gone almost instantly, but when checking running processes, then the previous 'evolution' process is kept running with all threads being in idle/poll, basically doing nothing.

for evolution;

The composer was marked "to be closed", but the draft save didn't close it, thus the EShell thought there is opened a window, and didn't try to quit on evolution's main window close. The composer couldn't be closed immediately, because the save draft is an asynchronous operation.
