Description of problem: Sending a message crashes the gnome shell from time to time. gnome restarts then. the message gets transfered. I believe i happens when opening the context for "storing the message on the imap account", because thats not visible before it crashes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): thunderbird 38.5.0 Gnome 3.18.2 How reproducible: once per week Steps to Reproduce: just sending a mail hitting send
What do you actually mean by "crashes gnome-shell"? Are you logged our, gnome-shell restarts, whole box freezes or what?
sorry for the delay.. Gnome-shell restarts as if you used "alt+F2" and entered "r" .
Still no change.. Thunderbird keeps restarting gnome-shell from time to time. The most anoying part about it is, that you never know, if it worked what you did with thunderbird.
