I haven't followed this thread, so I apologize if someone has already suggested this. I had a hell of a time getting Evolution to send and receive email last week when I set up FC3 on my Dell Latitude D800. I tried everything I could think of, including migrating my Evolution 1.4 data over and over again into Evolution 2.0, deleting and recreating mail accounts several times, and re-checking passwords. I also killed and restarted Evolution more than a dozen times, but it never worked. I finally managed to get Evolution to work by: 1. Chose not to remember passwords in the mail account configuration. 2. Removed passwords from memory (Go to Actions -> Forget Passwords). 3. Clicked the Send / Receive button. 4. When the email check started, I typed my passwords for each account that was checked, and selected the "remember passwords" option. And viola, Evolution was able to send and receive email. Now, I didn't document my steps even though I knew I should have, but I'm pretty sure that's what I did. I might have killed Evolution completely after step 2, so if the above doesn't work, try to kill Evolution before moving on to step 3.
