[Evolution] Summary issue

I've had the smae problem happen twice with what I tought was dire results. I've since figured out the bug. If the user's partition fills up while evolution is running and does not have some free space when the user quits evolution, the mailbox summary can becomre corrupted. This results in a nas

[Evolution] Ignoring changes with empty subject

I find the following 1.0 behavior to be a UI bug: compose an email to someone (like yourself) leave the subject empty write "foo" in the body hit send. You'll get the "empty subject" dialog. erase "foo" in the body and type "bar" instead. Hit the send anyway button in the warning dialog.
