[Bug 70893] Evolution occasionally hangs while accessing IMAP mailbox

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

While accessing my IMAP mailbox, Evolution will occasionally be able to
retrieve the subject line, sender, date, and headers for a new message,
but be unable to retrieve the actual message for several hours (if I let
it run that long).  Exiting Evolution results in it hanging indefinitely
during whatever shutdown voodoo it goes through; it usually has to be
killed from the command line.

During these hangs, the IMAP mailbox can be normally accessed using
either thunderbird or balsa, so this hang does not appear to be a
problem with the IMAP server.  Also, this may or may not be related to
Evolution not filtering mail from this account (bug #70891).

** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
