        Hi,
the 3.18.2 of the evolution-data-server/evolution contains unfortunate
bugs (some of them my fault).

One is about IMAPx doing incorrect unref of a message info, when
messages are moved/copied between folders of the same account, which
leads to use-after-free, which can strike back in various ways. One of
them can be that the view is showing incorrect message (that's a
different issue than the one from several years ago when an incorrect
message was shown in the preview). That's filled as:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757789
Fedora 23 has an update of evolution-data-server-3.18.2-2, which
contains that fix.

The other issue is with the lost keyboard commands, the non-functional
keys. That's spread between three bug reports, while one of them is in
gtk+ (their fix was correct, though the libgnomecanvas relied on that
behaviour of the gtk+).

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755730
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749737 (gtk+ bug)

These are the related bug reports in 3.18.2 (not 3.18.x), at least from
my point of view. The 3.18.3 will have them fixed. Its release is
planned on December 14th.
        Bye,
        Milan
