	Hi,
that might be due to memory leak in 3.6.0. The 3.6.1 is better on it,
the 3.6.2 too, and the 3.6.3 will be released in about a day or so,
which would be preferred to use the 3.6.3, with all its fixes from 3.6.0
till now.

Yeah, I also think the backend doesn't matter. It'll be good to save the
message as mbox, strip private information from it and share it at [1],
which seems to be the same crash, I only wasn't able to find the message
or otherwise reproduce it again.

By the way, the camel library resides in evolution-data-server, which I
guess is the reason why you do not have debug info for it.

With respect of compilation I do not know, maybe if you can just rebuild
the packages with more recent sources, and install those, then it'll
work as well? It does for Fedora, at least.
	Bye,
