Ubuntu
evolution package

Can receive mail but not able to send

Asked by rsmith@rushmore.com

Binary package hint: evolution

I receive my mail just fine as far as I can see. But anything I 'send' ends up in the outbox and stays there. Nothing I can do causes it to actually send.
Not sure of my version of Ubunto but upgraded when the newest came out.

This happened a couple of years ago but when I emptied the 'outbox' it seemed to be better. This problem occurred over this past weekend. I have emptied my outbox and tried again to send only to have my one email still sitting there.

Youse Thunderbird and not evolution. Thunderbird is a professional Email client - and evolution isn't it.

Hope it helps.
Peter
