Description Bodo Bauer 2005-09-22 13:24:48 UTC
I have a hierarchy of local mbox folder. When using Evolution to access them,
Evo hangs after looking at just a few mails. The status bar displays 'Retrieving
Message 1185 (...) but the message is never shown. Menus etc are still
responding, however with no effect, as it seems to be waiting for the pending
message. Exiting Evo doesn't work either. The only to quit is to call 'evolution
--force-shutdown' from a different terminal. 

STDOUT gives tons of messages like this:

** (evolution:3572): WARNING **: Serious fd usage error 15

** (evolution:3572): WARNING **: Serious fd usage error 13

** (evolution:3572): WARNING **: Serious fd usage error 14

Comment 2 Harish Krishnaswamy 2005-09-22 14:15:19 UTC
Marking this as closed.
Comment 3 Bodo Bauer 2005-09-22 14:30:48 UTC
reopening. Just the existance of a path (which I appreciate!) doesn't fix it for
SL10.0. Are there updates available for SL10.0 (Evolution 2.4.0), and where can
people get them?
Comment 4 Harish Krishnaswamy 2005-09-27 12:03:36 UTC
Could you please approve the attached patch to be made available through SL10
Updates.
