Title:
  Evolution fails to display HTML email formatted

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Expired
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  When receiving HTML email (from an IMAP server), the preview pane
  shows the source code, not the formatted email, about 95% of the time
  (there appears to be no pattern: the rare email that shows fine might
  show wrong later on, etc.  If it matters, when an email displays
  formatted, pressing Ctrl-I to load images appears to be working
  (according to the status bar) but the images still display as a broken
  link.).  This worked fine in Hardy, now that I am on Intrepid this
  problem has arisen.  (I kept the same /home partition but did a fresh
  install to a new / partition, and haven't used the Hardy one since I
  upgraded.)

  On some messages, the characters "3D" will be inserted seemingly
  randomly in to the HTML source code (often near other non-alphanumeric
  symbols, such as in a URL query string in a link), which must be
  removed before I can copy and paste a link to view it (since it
  damaged the URL making it incorrect.)  However, not all mails show
  this, only about 50%, and it does not seem to be dependent on the
  sender.

  These mails all display fine in Apple Mail.app, no matter whether I
  read them first in that application or Evolution.

  If there is other information I can provide to help resolve this, let
  me know.

  (I'm on Intrepid AMD64)
