Title:
  email causes preview to stop working until restart or crashes
  evolution

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Attached is an email I get from a cron job I run for updating my
  debmirror. After upgrading to evolution 3.1 (currently still present
  on 3.1.5-0ubuntu2), whenever I access this email (and the other daily
  debmirror emails), either message preview stops working until I
  restart evolution or evolution crashes.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. install evolution and make sure message previews are enabled
  2. import the attached into a local folder
  3. in the message list for this local folder, go back and forth between this email and another in the local folder
  4. go to this email and use the scrollbar in the message preview window and scroll up and down several times. This may cause evolution to crash.

  The problem seems exacerbated when accessing the email over imap for
  some reason. This does not happen every time, but is pretty easy to
  reproduce nonetheless (eg, do the above steps a few times).
