[opensuse] Evolution 2.12 "reply" locks up on opensuse 10.3



I notice that a lot of people have had good luck with Evolution on
opensuse 10.3. I have not.


I have been using evolution since the Ximian days and it seems to be
increasingly unstable (for me). My biggest problem at the moment is that
I can reply only once in each session. When replying the second time,
Evo locks and grays out. It does not release if I wait it out.

evolution –force-shutdown will usually allow me to restart evolution,
but then I cannot reply even once.

It treats a response to a calendar meeting request the same way.

I can receive email and send new mails OK.

Sometimes, it locks up the Gnome main menu bar, and once in a while, the
whole Gnome Desktop.

Usually the only way I can complete clear out the problem is to restart
the X server. Sometimes I have to reboot.

When I moved from 10.2 to 10.3, I backed up my /home directory,
reformatted everything and installed from scratch, so I don't have any
old libraries or corrupt binaries. I do have everything that was in my
home directory, so I suppose I could have something corrupted in the
those, but I would be surprised that it would have this behavior.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
