Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

While typing text in an email reply or create new email text area, the
screen changes to a select text mechanism and as I move the mouse up and
down so is the selected text moving. At this point I am unable to come
out of the select  text mode , using ESCkey , Right Side mouse button or
anything other means. The effect is Ubuntu apps wide and so the ONLY way
out is the power button, which I never like to do, but needs must. I
have seen that my version of Evolution is quite old (got it via Ubuntu
Software Centre after installing 10.10 32 bit, even though I am on a
64bit architecture - recommendation from Ubuntu support). So will now
download version 2.32.1 in an effort to come over the problem.

Chris Pearce
