Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evolution
Running on Ubuntu 8.04 with 2GB of memory, a reasonable speedy
processor, and a hard disk that is 80% available. Evolution version
2.22.31.
I have been using the Evolution program without a single problem for a
few months. About three weeks ago, the application started crashing
while retrieving email (i.e., while the status bar displays "Fetching
mail.") At the beginning, I could often attempt to close the program and
would receive the option for Force Quit. Most recently, that stopped
working and I had to start manually ending the process.
I have restarted Ubuntu a few times and, of course, Evolution. I'm not
sure what else to try.
The program is fetching from only one pop account every minute. I tried
changing the interval but that did not help. Since the program is also
set to leave mail on the server for several days, I went through
variations (e.g., not leaving mail on the server, leaving it for
different lengths of time, etc.).
I have not been able to look at the log since it appears to be cleared
after Evolution restarts.
My Inbox is always left empty, so I doubt there's a problem with the
associated file being too large. Likewise with the Trash that is
frequently emptied.
I am not using a proxy but have been using SSL security. Even though
nothing has changed (that I know of ), I'll skipping the security.
The crashes occur while the program is left unattended. Other than
keeping a browser running, no other applications are active.
