[Evolution] Bug#401010: Hang when trying to read mail in evolution

[Øystein Gisnås]

Thanks for the quick answer!

It surprises me a bit that you see the problem even when not
previewing it. The stacktrace clearly shows that it's currently
rendering the HTML (in GtkHTML).

Does it happen when you press that particular email? If so, is it
possible for you to send that email to me?

Does it crash (SEGFAULT) when the problem occurs, or does it hang
(100% CPU usage)?

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348888 and
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356913 have info about the
open files problem. They say it's fixed in 2.9.1. I looked at it, and
to be able to backport it, I need to contact the developers directly -
it's a quite complex patch.
