I have solved this problem myself. The issue was that Evolution was not sending an FQDN as the argument to the HELO directive during the SMTP conversation. When I edited /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts then I was able to send email just fine.
Hi, Hal
I have encountered the smtp problem because my isp smtp server has some kind of anti-spam rule that will reject the private network IP address like 192.168.0.xx. and we use the NAT to goto the smtp. so i think i should let the HELO command use FWDN as the parameter not the IP. could you kindly tell me how did you modified your /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts file?
