Comment 18 for bug 182923

I can recreate this pretty reliably. I have mail-notification-5.4 with NetworkManager installed but not active (and not present on either the system or session bus). It's checking just one IMAP server, but that's not very important since this happens when there's no network connection (so no traffic's sent or received). If you remove the network connection and start mail-notification (-i) it will flash the error image. Right clicking and asking it to update now will trigger 100% CPU usage (on one core) and it'll just sit there like that.

I've attached the back traces from that, and I'm happy to provide more if they're not right, or it'll help solve this problem. I'm also experiencing the random crashes from bug 248125, and trying to isolate the circumstances that it occurs in. For both of these bugs I haven't found a source code repository or any experimental patches or anything? If there are any patches you'd like trying out, or if there's a repository somewhere to test out the latest versions and see if these problems have gone away, just say. I'm certainly happy to try out any testing or experimental patches that'll help get mail-notification rock solid. Thanks...
