If your application crashes, please get a backtrace. See http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/bugs.shtml#backtrace or https://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces/Details#Obtaining_a_stack_trace_using_GDB Ubuntu should also have a tool to create such stuff automatically, called "Apport". Don't know why it doesn't trigger for you.It does, but it is not generating any alerts for Evolution crashes. I have followed the two links.
Most I have to know how to re create the problem, which I can not do, and I have tried the Backtrace and can not get it to work. Here is what it says to do and what the output says... I.e. Follow these steps to run the process under gdb

Which one is shown by the "Signature" dropdown in the upper right corner in the email composer? They were all listed in "Signature" drop down I did not include the "--" in the signature, that is added automatically. FYI I attach a word doc of ONE of the signatures I use. I hope it helps. The auto-signatures named were: Personal Work informal Work - enclosed fyi Baroni Administration Information > I have disabled the auto-signature in the Default account and it has > stopped happening, but I do not now have an auto-signature in the main > account, I have to add it manually. http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/3.6/mail-composer-mail-signatures.html covers how to use and set signatures.

See http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/3.6/mail-composer-reply.html.en#default-settings Does this also happen with other reply types? I always use the "inline (Outlook style)" > 4.

I have to kill it and reboot, which is not good. Synchronizing what exactly? I assume folders.... I have enclosed a screenshot... It shows a number of activities at the foot of the client window. There can be many more than this. Once they start it just stops working - normally, not always. > 5.

A local one, or remote (Google calendar, Ubuntu One, etc)? Remote - ALL my accounts I monitor/use are hosted by or are Google. So company are all @Baroni-Limited.com and my personal is @gmail.com > 6. Also in Calendar the tabs for Chair and "required attendee" do not > work.... What does "do not work" mean exactly? What exactly do you do, what happens, what doesn't happen? Take this one back... They did not work, but I just tried to take a screenshot for you and they all worked. andre
