Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

I use a mail server (dovecot) in my home network (running on my Linksys NSLU2). I use 'evolution' as mail client on all of my machines. The mailbox is IMAP format.

On one of my notebooks I have recently upgraded from hardy heron to intrepid ibex, i.e. evolution version 2.24.1.1.

Whenever I select "Datei/Müll leeren" (file/empty trash), evolution instantly crashes without any messages. The e-mails in the trash folder don't get deleted, they survive this operation. In my preferences I have the option "delete trash on exit" checked. This also doesn't work - today I have realised that in total 1,599 e-mails had not been deleted after the upgrade to intrepid ibex.

On my wife's notebook, running hardy heron and evolution 2.22.3.1, deleting e-mails from the trash works as expected. The e-mails are in fact gone after this operation, even when I open the trash folder on my notebook with the 2.24.1.1 version of evolution.

This bug is reproducible. It was introduced in version 2.24.
