Thanks for your bug report. The crash looks like a memory corruption. Could you try to get a valgrind log for it? (you can follow the instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind for that)

Almost same problem here - but here Evolution started correctly and crashed while checking for mail. I do my best to get a log but I think that I get first tomorrow enough time...

Same here, checking imap/ssl mail, trying to select a message and kaboom. No more window, nothing

I just had Evolution crashed, I opened it, it went to check for mail on two accounts, one is IMAP with SSL, the other was an exchage account using the built in exchange connector.

Had previously done an adept automatic updater and did not reboot. This was done on 4/30/2007. I have Kopete running and a webpage up in Firefox and a Kopete chat screen up. Amorok playing music. Also running KDE at the moment (currently default log on). All I did was click on the evolution link in the internet menu. Normal pop. Saw inbox screen and went to crash screen. Just launched it again and all is well--go figure..

Directed here by Apport. For me this happened while I was running the Gnome desktop and installing the kubuntu-desktop with apt-get. One simple webpage open in ff.

We need to find a way to reproduce this so we can get a Valgrind log - clearly something's buggy - but what?!

Just saw this myself. “Invalid” isn't fair, changing to “Incomplete”. I’ll let you know if I can reproduce it under valgrind.
