Are you using Thunderbird to send mail ?
I find when you send a email a window will open for your email password and it is is hidden down behind any open window where you can't see it, and your email won't send until your SMTP gets it's email password.
I do get window that ask for password, and I enter password, then a second window appears "Unable to authenticate to SMTP server. Bad authentication response from server"
I am sending this email from the same computer using Kmail, however, I would like to go back to Evolution if it can be fixed.

Have you considered asking your email provider's tech support?

Evolution works for me. What needs to be fixed?

one of two things, your password is not correct or your account settings is off. If you know your account settings compare with what you have in kmail.
Last resort , Call your ISP and get correct settings.
example:
Server Name: Port #: Security and Authentication: Username:

The OP didn't specify whether he was using Gnome or KDE. KMail uses Kwallet I think, where as Evolution uses gnome-keyring. I would guess the OP is using evolution in KDE and it fails to access gnome-keyring.

i owuld bet evolution is misconfigured and you should contect your serveradmin because this is the only person who can look what exactly happens
what auth-method are you using and what does you server support? telnet you-smtp 587
below a smtp-session to look what the server supports
[harry@srv-rhsoft:~]$ telnet mail.thelounge.net 587 Trying 10.0.0.15... Connected to mail.thelounge.net.

I only ever use Evolution under KDE. It uses gnome-keyring just as it does under Gnome. The only difference is that Evo prompts you for the keyring password on starting up under a new session (just the first time) as it doesn't get this info automatically from the login widget as it does under Gnome.
