Error message: "Error while sending message. Connection timed out"

No traffic at all, it looks like its even not trying to communicate. Tried this camel dbg but didn't reveal any error message. Mail servers are OK (used Thunderbird 5 for testing on same computer, same Internet connection)

Please verify is Evolution is marked to work online under the File menu. You may also want to check that account settings use the correct server name and port to retrieve email.

Since the issue described here is a connection and configuration issue (as hinted by the "Connection timed out" message, the best I can do is to convert this to a question so that someone can help you with the configuration settings.
