Paul, That was a very amusing exercise.... :-)
Here's the results of the "mylog.txt" file....
sending EHLO [10.10.10.14]^M received 502 sending MAIL FROM: dnrlinux@san.rr.com^M received 503 5.0.0 Polite people say HELO first sending QUIT
OK, fine.... obviously my ISP SMTP server doesn't like EHLO and wants to see HELO.
So, why does evolution report back? Error while performing operation: MAIL FROM response error: unknown
What's the purpose of an error message? To allow somebody to diagnose a problem. So how about something like: Error while sending mail: EHLO response error: 502 MAIL FROM response error: 503 5.0.0 Polite people say HELO first
The next question is, since EHLO failed, evolution should do one of two things: - try HELO - or stop there... an error of 502 means there's not much point in continuing.
Then my little test message remains in the outbox... I deleted it by selecting it and pressing the delete key. The item count in the outbox is now 2 (from my original message as well, also deleted) and when I close evolution it warns me that I have unsent items in the outbox.... there're problems in the delete code when removing items from the outbox.

Hi Don,
This maybe a glibc error. Edit your /etc/hosts and take out whitespaces, blank lines, etc. to fix this bug.
To test if its a glibc error run this "CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 evolution &> mylog.txt"
look at mylog.txt to see if there is ELO, instead of the normal POP response

Well, shortly after sending that note, I found rawritewin and created the floppy disk.
I tried to send this note from the fully-updated FCT3 system on my laptop using Evolution 1.4 .... but it seems it can't send mail. When sending, I get an error back about From unknown or something like that.

OK... I'll try that.... I downloaded the mg file, but now how do I create a floppy disk from it? I thought I used a program called rawwrite or something like that, but that's not recognized on m Win 2000 system...

The laptop install went "OK", but the update utility doesn't work, it hangs during checking dependencies etc. The desktop install fails miserably.... choking big time with rpmdb fatal errors during the package install. Question is... are there newer ISO images I can d/l and try again? Thanks, Don Don- That would probably be the most reported bug of FCT3... There is an anaconda update that you can download at
http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/severn-t3-updates.img. Create a floppy from the image file, boot to the installation CD, put the floppy in, and then type "linux updates" (might be "linux update") It should update anacona on the fly and fix the problem. If it does not, please reflect your experiences at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=106965
