Description David Woodhouse 2014-10-12 22:27:09 UTC
I was on a crappy airport lounge network and for some reason sending mail failed. It just says 'Sending message'. I hit cancel and now it says 'Sending message (cancelling).'. It's been hours now. The TCP connection was in CLOSE_WAIT for a while but it's utterly dead now. And my mail window is still there, failing to cancel an operation that's already failed.

It wasn't the airport network; even after I got to my destination and tried again, it was still getting stuck like this.
Comment 3 André Klapper 2021-05-19 11:04:26 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. 
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution-data-server/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
