Bug description:
  A bug in Evolution (definitely present in 3.6.2 and 2.6.3, fixed in
  3.6.4, status in 3.2.x unknown) causes Evolution to crash with an
  infinite recursion in the attachment formatting code, when attempting
  to view (via opening or the preview pane) any mail whose Content-type
  isn't in a format that Evolution expects. This can be triggered, by
  example, by mail sent by the SOGo groupware.

  This bug is fixed by the following Evolution commit:
  https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit/?h=gnome-3-6&id=881533927325432a0bab7eabea3a1d4008b5bcff
