evolution mail startup wizard mistake / how to edit????

Well,maybe it is not best solution,but you can always delete profile and start again.

Um..yes/no don't know.
guess I will just have to fumble through till I get used to UBUNTU
have located the sending/receiving preferences, but am as yet not certain that I have entered the correct pop3 client for <email address hidden> (being: <email address hidden>?) - seems to be taking far too long, but is asking me encouraging questions such as: my password, & has completed pop3 but seems stuck on smtp????
Anyway thanks. these things take getting used to

YES.
cant figure what I have done wrong.
there is a pop-up status window called 'send and receive mail'
there are 2 ongoing status reports:
pop alternates between 'getting' & 'retreiving' pop message (now @ attempt 248)
& below smtp, now on 5 of 15 messages I tried sending earlier, one of which was to myself & I have not received it.
my e-mail account is (as above) - have used <email address hidden> in the sending preferences.
seems odd (advice / online Q&A) that '<email address hidden>' would have a pop address of '<email address hidden>'?
could it be I should set it @ <email address hidden>
the advice I followed had '<email address hidden>' as an example in the pop settings,
It is trying to send, but doesn't succeed.

this doesn't help.

WTF

Yes,
There is a minor typo: you said THEN on your incoming; meant outgoing.
Thank you anyway, it is now working.
Best, K
