Binary package hint: evolution

I am using Evolution on Hardy. I have setup SMTP to a specific
(external) mail server for sending mails.

Nevertheless, Evolution somehow sends the mail to a locally running
Postfix (via sendmail?), which in turn delivers it to the recipient's
mail server. The configured mail server is not used at all.

I am checking the "security vulnerability" checkbox because sending
confidential mails via a different mail server than what's configured
can easily become a security problem.

Evolution uses local Postfix rather than SMTP to deliver mails
