I've got what sounds like the same problem, except it freezes on opening rather during use, which makes evolution unusable. A backtrace is attached; to get it I launched evolution and waited for 5 minutes to try to rule out performance as a problem. If you look at thread 12, to my untutored eye it looks like it was waiting for user input for the password, but no dialog appeared.
I realise there are several packages without debug symbols in the call stacks. If any of these are critical, let me know and I'll install them and get a new backtrace. ** Attachment added: "gdb-evolution-2.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34589116/gdb-evolution-2.txt -- Evolution freezes while checking IMAP email https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453942 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
