Yes, same accounts, same Mail Server, same recipients for the tests.
If Evolution sent mails via ISP server with the same config, etc., it
worked w/o problem. The only difference is Kmail running on F7 and
Evolution on Ubuntu 7.10 desktop but on the same PC and 2 HDs.

Everything is the same and via port 25. I tested several sender
accounts and recipients on both Kmail and Evolution. Only Evolution
has the "send" problem via Mail Server but w/o problem via ISP server.
The Public IP address is fixed NOT dynamic. I tried both the IP addr
of the Mail server as well as the Public IP. They worked w/o problem
only with "send" problem on Evolution. At the beginning I tested
"send" with "server required authentication". It alwasy complained
password incorrect. Then I made further test w/o authentication. It
complained "Relay access denied"

Yes. That is correct but on different HD and OS.

No. At home.
