[Bug 76796] evolutions consums lots of cpu while pinging imap server

[Shaya Potter]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

the imap server I use is very busy and connections time out and this
causes evolution to consume 100% cpu (or whatever it can get) making my
1.8ghz t42p unresponsive until it finally decides the connection is dead
and restarts it.

from top

 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND 
8525 spotter   15   0  208m  93m  18m S 89.9  9.2  19:07.14 evolution

the only item that there is is that in the status area it says "Pinging
IMAP server ...."

** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
