Hello Guix!

First of, many thanks to Jonathan Brielmaier, Nikita, Adrian Malacoda and
Ricardo Wurmus; for making Icedove in Guix happen. :-)

When I tried it, I got the following error on opening "Preferences".

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity
Location: about:preferences
Line Number 780, Column 17: <menuitem id="mail-menuitem"

Regards,

[ICEDOVE]: Hogs-up system resources upon connection.

Hello Guix!

First of, many thanks to Jonathan Brielmaier, Nikita, Adrian Malacoda and
Ricardo Wurmus; for making Icedove in Guix happen. :-)

To try out the application, I connected to chat.freenode.net and joined
#freenode. As soon as I connect and join, the whole-system started to become
laggy. When I typed something in icedove, they appeared with delay. Also, when I
checked with 'top' command, icedove's CPU was hitting %101.7.

Regards,
RG.

Hello Guix!

So I tried opening icedove from terminal, to see more information about
the error. It appears the error has its origin from a file called
"Overlays.jsm".

Regards,
RG.

Hi Raghav,

I cannot reproduce this issue with Icedove. I'm running IRC for several
days just fine in icedove 68.8.0 with no peaks in CPU or so.

With thunderbird it often helps to close the programm and open it again.
This is my experience as long time user :P

I also experience this bug, even with a fresh profile.

I can't not reproduce this with our most recent Icedove (78.3.2). Do you
still have this problem?
