The issue started in 2014 and in 2014 I resent most messages several
times.

That is the first thing I always did and still do.

To use some sendmail program is useful to get a log file Evolution
doesn't provide. I wrote about the issue on the Evolution mailing list
and it's recommended to use a sendmail program.

That was my understanding too, but it was mentioned that I should
subscribe to that list.

I might do this in the future, but before doing this I want to rule out
as much mistakes as possible.

This is nearly impossible to do, the ISP usually ignores customers, as
most other, if not all ISPs in Germany do too.

And that + some other things is what I will do or I'm already doing, you
just missed it.
.msmtp.log e.g. does provide exitcode information. Btw. I know that I
can use sendmail programs with Evolution too, but I anyway write mails
with an editor. Keeping threads seems to work, I just need to take more
care about line wrapping.
