Description of problem:
After using evolution for a while, I get to a point when I can no longer send
mail.  Clicking on "Send/Recieve" hangs waiting for the SMTP transaction to
complete, which doesn't.  I attached a screenshot of that dialog.  Trying to
quit out of evolution at this point just hangs.  killall evolution is the only
way out.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
2 for 2 so far since installing RHEL5 Beta2

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start evolution
2. use for a while
3. click "send/receive" and watch the SMTP send "waiting"
  
Actual results:
no mail gets sent;

Expected results:


Additional info:

So, to get out of this, one must quit evolution. BUT, evolution hangs exiting.
killall evolution.  Upon restart, sending mail works again.

I'm finding myself having to "killall evolution" at least 6 times a day now. 
I'd say that's a useability issue.  Probably something that needs to get fixed
before we ship IMHO.  Setting blocker to ?

I have this issue constantly also.  Beta2.

It is worth noting that I have other issues with evolution (every quit causes a
crash and bug buddy pops up, find contacts does not work by any field, etc.)

I will open other bzs on those

As described in Bug 219819, I can trigger this pretty readily on some machines
by performing two send/receives in quick succession or by performing a
send/receive right after a single mail send. In other words, the problem occurs
immediately instead of after a few hours.

For what it's worth, the fedora evolution has, so far, not shown me this
error.

I found a couple similar upstream bugs, but there's been no progress on either

Fix for EMsgPort race

I figured this out. Its a race condition in the new EMsgPort implementation.
e_msgport_wait() saves the message in msgport->cache and returns it later in
e_msgport_get(). However, two threads can end up running e_msgport_wait() (if
two threads are waiting and two messages are put), which will result in cache
being overwritten with the last message.

This patch fixes it by making cache a list.

This bug has gone away for me with the new package, but since it's such a deep

Title:
  Receive hangs regularly

Status in Evolution:
  Fix Released
Status in evolution-data-server package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in evolution package in Fedora:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  Quite regularly (at least several times per day), evolution is not
  able to succeed in receiving mail from one or several accounts (either
  local, pop or imap). It's then not possible to cancel the receiving
  operation. The only way to close the send/receive dialog is to use the
  window close button. From this instant, every attempt to send/receive
  will also fail to succeed on the same accounts that failed the first
  time, and it will not possible to quit evolution (it hangs after
  folder synchronization).
