Maybe a low single digit times within months, using evolution on  
multiple machines.
Th annoyance level is lower, so I was not bothered to dig into that.

However, due to the lack of similar reports, I guess what you see is  
something related to your setup, so we should take a look into that  
directon.  Maybe your use case is a lot different... What are your  
settings? e.g I do not use html mails (I use textmail), maybe you can  
also describe how you reproduce this?
