Comment 132 for bug 151536

For me this bug happens as soon as I click the "new message" button. I don;t even have to type anything in the new msg window.

Note that gconfd-2 also jumps permanently onto the ready list.

To recreate: start evolution, click "new message" button.

Just like everyone else, have run --force-shutdown to get it to stop.

Here's the evolution runtime info:
