Title:
  Evolution 2.22.1 valgrind run with a nice amount of lost blocks

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  Well... there I was, at the current contract, without access to email
  (they block everything). I had to prepare some emails and I had some
  free time.

  So, I wondered, what about running Evo under valgrind for a while? And
  there I went. I decided to run just Evo under valgrind (next in line
  will be E-D-S), and did it for about 90 minutes. While I was writing
  my emails, Evo was busy trying to download -- and upload -- emails
  and, or course, failing miserably.

  Anyway. When I finished writing the emails I stopped Evo and had a
  quick look at the valgrind log.

  And... found a nice chunk of lost memory.

  So, here it is. I thought of opening it straight in bugzilla, but
  decided that it was worth a LP bug. I will open bugzilla shortly.

  Valgrind was run in a shell as follows:

  #! /bin/bash
  G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly  valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log $*

  
  and I called it as './valgrind.sh evolution --component=mail'.
