Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
This bug has just appeared for me with the upgrade to Jaunty 9.04. When clicking on the button to compose a new message, Evolution become totally unresponsive for 60-100 seconds before it brings up the window. (Applies equally when replying to a message, or forwarding, or any other action that would bring up a new Compose window.)
There is a brief (1-2 second) spike in CPU usage by Evolution right after I click the New Message button, then its CPU usage falls to zero until it suddenly pops up the window a minute or two later. This is on an Athlon 64 X2 with 4gb of RAM, running the amd64 version of Jaunty.
This appears to be similar, but even worse, than this old unresolved bug reported here: https:/
