Description Milan Crha 2015-06-08 12:14:46 UTC 
Moving this from a downstream bug reports:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1229230


Description of problem:
=======================
Evolution slow down or hang after some editing of message rules.
The resulting message rules file has a lot of duplicate lines.

Version-Release:
===============
evolution-3.16.2.1-2.fc22.x86_64

How reproducible:
=================
I'm not really sure. With my rules just doing a few mods here and there seems to make it happen.
Comment 1 Milan Crha 2015-06-08 12:22:51 UTC 
This is a regression from the changes in bug #550796, the string values for rules like: [Subject] [contains] [text]
are stored multiple times now, instead of only once for the simple entry input. The below change doesn't correct already saved rules, that's required to be done by the user manually, by editing the ~/.config/evolution/mail/filters.xml, eventually searches.xml and vfolders.xml.

Created commit 21b1070 in evo master (3.17.3+)
Created commit 76d19b4 in evo gnome-3-16 (3.16.4+)
Comment 3 ReD 2015-06-08 17:02:57 UTC 
To cleanup filters.xml quickly:

uniq ~/.config/evolution/mail/filters.xml > uniq.tmpfile
mv uniq.tmpfile ~/.config/evolution/mail/filters.xml
