RE: [Evolution] Attachment problem

["John Graber" <badger wi rr com>]

I too have a similar problem:

I have received 2 emails - One is in HTML format with a *.wav file attached.
Another I sent to myself as a test and is a plain text email with an
attached *.txt file.

In both cases, when I select either email from the list in my Inbox, the
preview pane begins to display the email and then the whole Inbox disappears
with the following message:

        Ooops!  The view for 'evolution:/local/Inbox' have died unexpectedly.  :-(
        This probably means that the mail component has crashed.

(No, the poor English is not mine 8)

And the terminal window displays:

        Bonobo-WARNING **: Exception on unrealize 'Unknown CORBA exception id:
'IDL:
        CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0''

I am using the Preview release downloaded from Ximian Update.

Thoughts?

        John

If it is an html attachment then the problem is known and we are working
on it, otherwise I'm not sure what is wrong.  The problem is caused by a
resize loop in gtkhtml, hopefully it will be fixed soon.
