[Evolution] Spam Assassin, Large Emails

[Emilio Recio <Emilio Recio jefferson edu>]

Folks,

This is just an FYI, not necessarily an Evo issue, but something that
might look like it for a first time user (namely: me).

I switched from bogofilter to spamassassin and noticed slower
performance across the board when loading the inbox. It would take
forever to "filter" the inbox. This was markedly a problem when my inbox
had 780 messages and the check-for-mail frequency was set to every 5
minutes.

I have since cleaned up my inbox, but still noticed the same performance
issues "filtering". After noticing my 100% cpu usage being spam
assassin, i had it disabled and switched to bogofilter. This problem
went away completely. :)


*Question*:

Now, the problem I am getting is Evo freezing when I open a 9.3MB plain
text email from anacron. It doesn't matter if it is as the attachment of
9MB (i.e.: a CSV file) or in the body. It happens at home and at work.
With a 64bit dual core amd, or an intel core i5 (with 32bit OS). Both
are running Fedora 20. I am not sure if you've seen, but the bug ID with
test case:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1093188

I am giving them a backtrace today.

Thanks in advance,
Emilio
