Yes, same accounts, same Mail Server, same recipients for the tests. 
If Evolution sent mails via ISP server with the same config, etc., it
worked w/o problem.  The only difference is Kmail running on F7 and
Evolution on Ubuntu 7.10 desktop but on the same PC and 2 HDs.

Everything is the same and via port 25.  I tested several sender
accounts and recipients on both Kmail and Evolution.  Only Evolution
has the "send" problem via Mail Server but w/o problem via ISP server. 
The Public IP address is fixed NOT dynamic.  I tried both the IP addr
of the Mail server as well as the Public IP.  They worked w/o problem
only with "send" problem on Evolution.  At the beginning I tested
"send" with "server required authentication".  It alwasy complained
password incorrect.  Then I made further test w/o authentication.  It
complained "Relay access denied"

Yes. That is correct but on different HD and OS.

No.  At home.
