  evolution crashed with SIGSEGV, while pasting from clipboard

Bug description:
  Guys,

   Evolution on Xenial crashes most of times that I want to copy and
  paste stuff into Mail composer window.

   From what I'm seeing, if the stuff inside of the clipboard is
  formatted, with big fonts, tables, etc, it crashes.

   The workaround is to use "Diodon" to paste into Evolution without any
  formatting, or, to open an vim session on Terminal, paste into it
  first, then, copy it again from vim, and paste into Evolution, this
  way, it doesn't crash.

   Looks very easy to reproduce!

  Cheers!
  Thiago
