[Bug 878560] [NEW] evolution mail view stops updating

 

Public bug reported:

Every so often, particularly when going through a set of messages
quickly (though it's hard to reproduce) the mail view pane in evolution
stops refreshing. That is, it'll get stuck showing whatever it was
showing. Content is being rendered there (I can tell because mouseover
things still work as expected, you just can't see where they are) but
it's not showing up. If I right-click on it, the image of the menu will
remain there. If I hide and reshow the pane (ctrl-m) it doesn't fix it,
it comes back but still nothing gets drawn there.

I'm not using compositing (I'm running xmonad), so that will influence
some of these symptoms I expect.
