This chapter will cover the steps necessary to install and configure the Evolution email client on Ubuntu. The objective of this chapter is to cover this topic in general terms. In the next chapter, entitled [[Sending and Receiving GMail Email on an Ubuntu 10.x System]], the steps necessary to send and receive email via Google’s Gmail system from Ubuntu will be covered.

The final step is to tell the Evolution mail client how to send mail. Press Forward to move to the Sending Mail setup screen. On this screen change the “Server Type” to SMTP or Sendmail depending on the requirements of your email system and set the Host field to the setting used by the server. Also enter the authentication settings required to send email via the server:

All being well you should now be able to send and receive mail.
