Title:
  evolution crashes after trying to send email when composer preferences
  'format messages in HTML' is checked

Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1.) Description:	Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch)
  Release:	15.10

  2.) Evolution:
    Installed: 3.16.5-1ubuntu

  3.) I expected to be able to send an HTML formated email.

  4.) When I hit the send button after filling out the email the
  application locked up for roughly 20 seconds then crashed. This
  behavior happens every time when the  'format messages in HTML'  box
  is check in Composer Preferences. If I uncheck this box I'm able to
  send mail normally. I'm also able to send email if I manually switch
  to HTML.

  Extra Notes:
  evolution crashed with signal 5 in g_object_new_valist()
