My setup is fetchmail to exim and procmail for sorting in Maildir setup. Then i use an IMAP connection in evolution to get my mail which works great. However, when i use the first account, the second account is not logged in but his status is displayed as "Connecting..." and it stays that way and so i'm unable to send email with this email address. The sollution was to set the 2nd account to use maildir format instead of imap. I might even be able to not put anything there at all and just specify the smtp server. I'll try that once.
