Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

Ubuntu 9.10
Evolution 2.28.1

Evolution keeps lauching "Fetching Feeds (0 enabled)" tasks at the bottom of the window. I had a news feed but deleted it and it still hangs while launching countless processes. I have several of them at the bottom of Evolution with a red "X" and the spinning busy image. When checking for new mail or updating news feeds I would expect it to check and close the window. I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 yesterday and this when the problem started.

I simply always have at least one feed in there; I can't deal with this
otherwise.

Disclaimer: I'm still on oneiric, planning to upgrade to precise within the
next couple weeks.

This is still a problem in 2023. Why does it fetch 0 feeds? Is that not the obvious case where it should halt the checking???
