Title:
evolution hangs while sending email
Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
Expired
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: evolution
Hi,
Note, this problem has only come up, after I upgraded my laptop from
ubuntu "intrepid" to "jaunty".
I seem to have an intermittent problem (4 out of 5 times) where
sending an email will result in evolution hanging. When I send an
email, the status bar indicates that it's sending the email, and goes
from 0% to 100%, then it seems to stay there. The "x" displayed on
the status bar seems to be disabled (or it's just unresponsive). If I
click the "Sent" folder, to see if the message has been sent, then a
number of messages are displayed on the status bar, one of them
indicating some synchronisation is in progress, but the list of emails
is not displayed. Then evolution becomes unresponsive (i.e. clicking
on other widows, etc fails to show messages), and I'm unable to
terminate evolution through the normal means.
Once the problem occurs, I can kill evolution by killing all the
evolution processes. Once I restart, the message is shown in the
"Output" folder, the message is seen in the "Sent" folder but it keeps
being resent, in fact, the message gets resent, everytime evolution is
restarted. The only way, I can stop the message being resent, is if I
delete the message myself from the "Output" folder.
Things, I have tried:
- I had my home folder setup as a mounted usb drive. I thought this issue
might be timing related, hence I thought that slower access to the usb drive
might be a problem, so I have now moved my home drive to my laptop drive.
- I noticed some existing bugs with regards to "tracker", so I have removed
tracker using the synaptic package manager.
- I noticed some existing bugs with regards to the exchange plugins, so I
have removed them using the synaptic package manager.
- I noticed some existing bugs with IMAP, so I have disabled all my email
accounts (gmail, IMAP), and now it is only setup to use my main mail account
(yahoo).
- I've googled for similar bugs, but there doesn't seem to be any recent ones
that seem similar.
What I'm thinking of doing next (but will wait for advice):
- Re-installing ubuntu
- Re-installing ubuntu, renaming the .evolution folder and importing my
existing mail folders manually
Cheers
Vince
