Comment 4 for bug 1070769

I honestly believed the behaviour got much worse in the proposed package.
Since thunderbird kept on freezing right after initiating any online activity (sync imap or rss) and going online, I was forced to try out evilution again. It seemed to work great until I discovered after a week that it was not sending out any email :(
I decided to give thunderbird-next a try and it works great so far i.e no freezes and I'm able to send/receive mail and read rss:
