(Resend because sent it from wrong account that the Evolution list rejects)
Sorry user error in my reply. Forgetting passwords + removing ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution DID fix it. I had changed the server address to about 5 different servers while trying to figure out the problem. When I tried doing the above routine, the error message changed to something else (wrong password because it was a different server than the account), and i didn't notice it till after replying. Anyway, thanks a bunch Not Zed.
