OK, lots of people use Evolution with Exchange, so the "your IMAP server
is broken" scenario seems unlikely.

That generally means an error appending to the Sent Items folder.

That's saying that evolution sent a command with the tag "Subject:" that
it didn't recognize. Sounds like evo is sending the message body when
the server is expecting a command.

I wonder if perhaps it's failing to notice that the server said "NO"
rather than "+ continue". Is there any reason why appending the message
would fail? Do you have quotas turned on on your Exchange server and are
you near quota?

Anyway, showing more of the debug output (back to the APPEND command)
would help.
