EVOLUTION 2.8.3 under FC6

I have been using Evolution for a few years with only a few minor
problems. Today a couple of 'major' problems appear to have hit at the
same time.

The first problem is that my SMTP connection for sending Emails has
stopped working. The messages go to the Outbox ok, and the 'sending'
message shows 1 of ... 2 of ... - but the progress bar shows nothing and
nothing appears to get sent. Evetually an DATA timeout message appears
saying that the message(s) cannot be sent.

Secondly, all the VFOLDERS that I have have suddenly been duplicated on
the screen. The content of each 'duplicate' appears to be the same (so
it looks like just a display problem) - however, newly received mails
only show on one of the two folder headers. IE if I get 5 evolution
messages (into my Evolution vfolder) then only one of the two Evolution
vfiolders will read Evolution (5) in bold. I have tried a couple of
things after googling this, but to not avail. I have tried:
1) Deleting the vfolders and views folders (after stopping evolution) -
but the dupliactes still appear on restart.
2) removing the index and summary files - again the duplicates still
appear.
3) I even tried moving .evolution out of the way and staring evoultion -
then stopping evolution again and copying back the Inbox, Sent ...and
vfolders.xml files - but the duplicates reappeared (and in this case
evolution crashed - so I reverted back to the original .evolution
structure).

Has anybody any ideas on either issue? Obviously the SMTP problem is the
major panic, as I can't use the client for sending mails (like this!).

PS Am I right in thinking that eve if I have 20 email account sin
Evolution, the 'sending' always uses the SMTP connection of the default
account?
