August 28, 2007 Dear Mr. Bacher,
Thanks for your prompt response. I tried several times to obtain a backtrace of the problem, and evolution froze several times (an infinite loop?), so I had to end the program without success. Then I tried a valgrind, but was not sure where the valgrind file output was, so I did not retrieve it. This afternoon, I cleared my mailbox on the server by downloading my messages to another computer, which I use as a backup, and which I do approximately once a week. I downloaded approximately 20 mb (~200 messages), and the mail program on that computer removed all messages from the server. The evolution mail program on this (my main) computer now works perfectly, in that the program does not close after the messages are downloaded. I can only think that for some reason evolution interacted with the large quantity of messages (or amount of storage used) on the server, and closed immediately after downloading. I did not lose any email messages, but to access them, I had to reopen evolution after it shut down. I've checked the evolution wiki page, but have not found this behavior (closing immediately after checking/downloading) described, so I don't know whether the action was an evolution problem or a server problem. Thank you for your help. If it is appropriate, please do forward my comments to the evolution team. FWIW, I'm running evolution as part of Ubuntu 7.04 (Gnome desktop) on an HP 552W desktop (2 ghz cpu with 500 mb ram, original video, and a 160 gig HD). Please contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you need additional information. Again, Thank You!
