I started using evolution email client in Ubuntu. However, my service provider requires me to use a different port for SMTP. When you first check the tab where you set the options for SMTP, you can not find a field about the port number of SMTP. I was looking for a field because Thunderbird has a field for port.
The solution is this :
smtp.hostname.com --> Assumes you are using port 25.
smtp.hostname.com:587 --> You set the SMTP port to 587.
I think this is not a good way to handle ports, but I am happy since I found a soluton.

How to install LAMP on Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (Desktop Version)
If you are using Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) Desktop edition and you want to install the "LAMP" (actually you want to install AMP part :)). Just do the following:
Never forget this before installing something.
$>sudo apt-get update
and
$>sudo apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 libapache2-mod-auth-mysql mysql-server php5 php5-mysql
You will be asked to type the mysql password for the "root" user. Pick something you would not forget :).
Viola, you should be able to access your setup in no time...
