Evolution works flawlessly without a VPN .. and only half way when using a VPN. Imap Inbound is port 993 with TLS on a dedicated port via password Outbound is port 465 with TLS on a dedicated port via password As previously stated. Receiving always works .. with or without a VPN, while outbound only works without a VPN.
