I have Evolution working on Sympatico, but I am using the original POP
and SMTP servers and it works OK with them. I have no way to test the
settings for the "HM" Servers on Evolution but in having set one up
before in Eudora the following should work I believe.

I presume you have it set for "Use Secure Connection" on the Receiving
E-mail tab and set it to "Always".

Have you also set up the POP Server for "pophm.sympatico.ca:995" to use
the required port 995 for your SSL connection on the Receiving E-mail
tab?

On the Sending Mail Tab have you also set the SMTP Server for
"smtphm.sympatico.ca:25" for it to use the required port? Also Security
should be set to "Always" and  Authentication I believe should be set to
"Plain".

If these don't work get back with the error message contents and I will
try another source.
