Public bug reported: >From time to time, evolution fail to display/load some mail in previewing: - the previewing is displayed, but without the expected built-in image - in that case, evolution rise cpu usage to 100 % and nothing can be done to switch to an other email preview or kill that failing preview. - either evolution crash itself (rarely) or i need to kill its process, then reload evolution.
It seems necessary to deal with such a case: - set a timeout to exit the preview to avoid the whole freezing : simply let the preview not displaying the image if it cant do it. - or switch to the next email (but the above idea semms better designed) - displaying a popup explaining why it fail: missing image format or else.
