Re: [Evolution] Generating message list (cancelling) won't cancel. Evolution locked up
Hello Milan, Thank you for your message. My problem appears related to your recent post "Gmail & Yahoo". Evolution version is 3.40.0-1. This newer version came when I upgraded Ubuntu from 20.10 to 21.04. This gets in to the question of connecting to Yahoo email accounts, even though address is my_n...@bellsouth.net. The server settings from Outlook (my bellsouth email runs fine on a Win 10 PC) are: imap.mail.yahoo.com smtp.mail.yahoo.com The simple fix for now is to move critical personal email to another IMAP email service that is not involved with Yahoo.

Hi, it would help to see what evolution is trying to do, to eventually fix it, but I'm afraid the account is gone now, thus no way to get the backtrace, right?
