Re: [Evolution] Evolution 2.0.2 hangs after downloading 2 emails

[George Reeke <reeke mail rockefeller edu>]

TWIMC,
   I posted the problem described below a couple of days ago.
With the help of a suggestion from Sam Coker, the problem was
resolved by checking the box "Disable support for all POP3
extensions" in the Receiving Options screen for my account
setup, quitting and restarting Evolution.  I'm just posting
this in case it might help somebody else.
   Two questions:  (1) What exactly was I turning off with
this option?  (2) Should I post this as bug to the developers?
If so, how and where?
   Thanks,
   George Reeke
