Title:
  Freeze if it fail to display an image

Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  From time to time, evolution fail to display/load some mail in previewing:
  - the previewing is displayed, but without the expected built-in image
  - in that case, evolution rise cpu usage to 100 % and nothing can be done to switch to an other email preview or kill that failing preview.
  - either evolution crash itself (rarely) or i need to kill its process, then reload evolution.

  It seems necessary to deal with such a case:
  - set a timeout to exit the preview to avoid the whole freezing : simply let the preview not displaying the image if it cant do it.
  - or switch to the next email (but the above idea semms better designed)
  - displaying a popup explaining why it fail: missing image format or else.
