The behavior Steven Willis described happens to me on 32 bit Jaunty,
fully updated. The preview pane is turned on. The hang on "formatting
message" happens on an IMAP account every time I try to load a message
with external images where the sender is in my address book. I had
Evolution set to load external images for addresses stored in my address
book. Turning off the preview pane doesn't make "formatting message" go
away after it hangs.
If I kill the evolution-data-server the problem goes away until I try to
load a message with external graphics. If I turn off the preview pane &
open the same message after restarting evolution-data-server, the
"formatting message" notification doesn't hang. The external graphics
are still not loaded automatically as expected. I have to go to View -
Load Images to get the images to load.
The hang seems to only be caused for me when the preview pane is open and
Evolution is set to "Load images in messages from Contacts". It doesn't hang if
I set it to always load images from the Internet, with or without preview pane.
It doesn't hang if I manually load images while the preview pane is open.
To prevent the hang, I set Evolution to "Never Load Images from the Internet"
(Preferences - Mail Preferences - HTML Mail). I see this didn't prevent the
hang for others.
