Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
Recently I've received a large multi-part e-mail message with a big attachment. There are 6 e-mails with about 10 MB of data each. When i open the first one, the application freezes up, displaying the "formatting messages" text.
Even after waiting for over an hour, the application is still not ready processing the e-mails. It's a big problem for me, because Evolution opens this specific e-mail whenever i start Evolution, so i can't use Evolution for anything anymore, it just freezes up and that's it.
I'm using a fresh install of Ubuntu Edgy Eft with the latest version of Evolution (i do daily updates).

Thanks for your bug report. Can you install evolution-dbg and try to get a backtrace of the hang by running:
gdb -p $(pidof evolution)
