[CLOSED] evolution freezing; endlessly attempting to write to socket

For some reason Evolution has decided to start freezing on me... Immediately after start, the main window displays and that's it. If I try to select a different email, the email I click is highlighted, but it doesn't actually display. Double-clicking it to open it in a new window displays the new window, but the message is not loaded.

A strace of the process shows it is in what appears to be an infinite loop attempting to access a socket:

writev(3, [{"\230\7\2\0\37rb\0026\0\2\0\36rb\0025\30\4\0000rb\2\n\0`\2\220\6\336\2"..., 5976}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 5976
recvfrom(3, 0x1cfbaf4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 5, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 5, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x1cfbaf4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 5, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x1cfbaf4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
recvfrom(3, 0x1cfbaf4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 5, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x1cfbaf4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 5, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLOUT}])

This is on an up to date Arch x86_64 machine; fully updated since I hoped that would solve the problem. It was working fine this morning, but has now decided it doesn't like me

Any ideas folks?

Re: [CLOSED] evolution freezing; endlessly attempting to write to socket

Seems to be a problem with a particular email; after a backup and restore of email the problem was still present. After deleting the last email I received, the problem is gone :-|
