Email that hangs Evolution when trying to print

Description of problem:

When trying to print certain emails, Evolution simply hangs, then the 'Evolution is not responding' dialog is shown and I have to 'Force Quit' in order to restart Evolution.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.20.3-1.fc24

How reproducible:

This doesn't happen on all emails, but on emails which do trigger the issue, it happens 100% of the time (i.e. repeatedly trying to print affected emails will always hang Evolution).
 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import the attached mbox file into Evolution
2. Try to print the email

Actual results:

The Evolution UI instantly becomes unresponsive, and after a minute or so, the 'Evolution is not responding' dialog is displayed.

Expected results:

The Print dialog box should be displayed.

Thanks for a bug report and test data. I'm able to reproduce the issue too. It's caused by a bug in the evolution, when a specific formatting is used in the HTML file. I fixed it for the next release.
