It happens no matter what i do with Evolution. Even if i just read my email, when the time comes for it to re-read the Inbox, EVERY SINGLE THING i try to do with it will hang for like 3...5 seconds. As soon as it's done with whatever's doing, it will continue to run normally. If i clicked on a folder during the blocked period, that folder will get open as soon as that period is over (a few seconds, not more); if i tried to copy/paste a piece of text from Evo to another window (say, Gedit or something), CTRL-V will get executed only when Evo gets thawed; if i'm using the Composer, all characters typed in during the freeze (and which were invisible meanwhile) will all get displayed at once. Heck, even the sidebars are not functional and i cannot scroll any Evo window (Composer or other) up or down; but once the freeze is over, it works again (and the events triggered by the user during the freeze will happen all at once after the freeze). If i drag an Evo window across another Evo window and i start that a second before it gets frozen (so that it will lock while i'm just doing it), the window underneath will not get updated, so the little window above will leave a "snail trail". Once the freeze is over, everything gets back to normal. This is a vanilla Fedora Core 1 install (all updates applied) on a dual Xeon hardware, 4 SCSI disks and 1GB RAM (fairly muscular rackmountable server which i'm using as a workstation), with the exception that i'm running Cyrus IMAPd on the same system and pointing Evo at it. Even if it were a problem due to Cyrus, Evo shouldn't freeze like that. Squirrelmail on same system (under Apache) works just fine with Cyrus. Everything else works fine, this is my primary workstation and is heavily used, not only as a workstation, but it also runs some hefty database jobs every night while i'm away (big datamining jobs which take hours to complete). OpenOffice works fine, Mozilla as well (with Java and Macromedia), Gedit, Gimp, Apache, vncserver, etc. Before using Cyrus, i used to suck my email into Evo over POP3, and i had no issues whatsoever. The problem appeared when i switched over to IMAP. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
