Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

Steps to reproduce:
1. Move a message to a folder. Make sure the move will take some time. This
means you should move between local folders with lots of messages, or between
remote folders (via IMAP, for example).
2. Try to move another message.
3. Under some conditions (it doesn't happen always), the mouse pointer gets 
stuck
as the message drag-n-drop cursor. I believe it happens when the first move
operation completes while I'm still dragging the second message.

Stack trace:
Perhaps I shouldn't have filed this as a crasher. It's not segfaulting, but it
does hang. This leads to Evolution being unresponsive. Clicks to other windows
don't work either, making this far worse than a crash. All I can do is kill X,
or switch to a VT and kill evolution.

Other information:
I've had this problem on Evolution in Fedora Core 4 (version 2.2 or 2.4, I'm not
sure which... but whatever is the latest package in FC4), and now in Ubuntu
Dapper (which has version 2.6.. It happens in both "slow move" (large amounts
of messages in local folders, and via IMAP folders).

Now that I'm using IMAP folders, I'm seeing this far more often than I did with
local folders. This hits me every day.
