Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evolution
I have established an email account, [email protected], on the Comcast server. I have been able to configure Evolution Mail to receive messages sent to this address, but after several weeks of trying, I have not been able to configure Evolution Mail to send messages.I have verified with Comcast that Comcast is a POP server and that the correcct configuration for sending email is smtp.comcast.net. I have followed the instructions in Evolution Mail>Edit>Preferences>Mail Accounts>+Add to configure Evolution Mail to an apparent successful conclusion according to the setup wizard, but still, when I try to send a message, it simply goes to my Outbox and will not go. I can go directly to email on my Comcast server and send email successfully from there, so the problem is not with Comcast but with Evolution Mail Obviously, I have missed something in the configuration of Evolution Mail to send messages, but I am at my wits end to figure out what it is,partocularly since the setup wizard tells me I have followed all necessary steps successfully. I need aminutely detailed set of configuration instructions to show me where I've gone wrong..
