Try the following to solve the Evolution issue:

Tools -> Settings -> Choose your email account -> Edit -> Sending Mail

Unclick "Server requires authentication"

Save everything and try it again.

Hope this helps,

A document created with OpenOffice and saved, goes to the print que, but does not print.  It is not clear what to do to fix this.

I tried the user and the root passwords, but they do not work.  I do not find a place to specifiy a special password for email to use in sending or receiving.  When I enter a password when ready to send, it offers the choice to save the password.  Still the message does not go. Have not found an explanation in three books.  A;; generalities at that point.
