I've recently upgraded to 2.8 (upgrade Suse to 10.2) and found that I still get about 3 server backend crashes a day. But after experimenting some more (again) I found that if I disable the "auto" filtering of received Inbox messages, and do it by hand (Ctrl-A, Ctrl-Y), I get a much more stable Evo.
Anyone have any ideas? (I have about 20 filters)
I don't know what your situation is, but I am assuming that you are accessing an IMAP account? If that is the case, and you are an administrator on the server, you can configure the mail server to use procmail/maildrop, and then do server-side filtering that way.
A less intrusive way is to use the popfile IMAP module [1]. I have not used popfile myself, but apparently you configure it to classify your mail (based on bayesian classification), and it connects to your IMAP account at regular intervals and sorts your mail. You can use this approach as a regular user.
These solutions may not be optimal, but if you are experiencing instability in Evolution it is probably the best that you will do.
Thanks for the help, but I'm connected via MSExchange (MS slave at work). Actually only reason I'm using Evo (more of a Thunderbird man really). I will play a bit more - am also suspecting the Junk filter and Filters are sometimes competing for the same message - or something like that. Will enable/disable some combinations and see what happens.
