         Evolution 3.4.3 2012-06-18
         --------------------------

It fixes a segfault, which causes (partly) loss of messages which are
being just composed. That should never happen to the mail application
which is by far the most used application of an operating system next to
the Web browser.

Additionally it hopefully fixes Debian report #679347 [1].


Thanks,

Paul


PS: It looks like Evolution 3.4.3 also contains another segmentation
fault I reported upstream today [2].
