Description of problem: Evolution refuses to send mail via my ISPs SMTP server, instead it reports that it cannot connect to the server due to a timeout. I tried the exact same account setup in Thunderbird on the same machine and that client sends mails so looks to be a bug in Evolution. No helpful output is present when run in a console. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.8.2.1-2.fc6 evolution-data-server-1.8.2-1.fc6 (updates-testing version, stable version also affected) How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. attempt to send mail Actual results: timeout Expected results: successful mail delivery Additional info:
When that happens can you still close evolution normally? This issue happens to me too. But it works normally for sometime then if i press to many times Send/Receive it stop's working and i have to kill it.
