You need to fix gnome-keyring. This is not an Evolution problem. Take a
look at ~/.gnome2/keyrings/. The error messages imply that some file
there is write-protected, meaning that Evo can't write passwords into
it.

You were right. 
 
I installed gnome-keyring-manager and then ran it to take a look at my
keyrings.   For some reason it wouldn't let me open the "default"
keyring.  So I deleted it and created a new default keyring.
 
Then I started evolution.  I did not get any of the keyring errors.  It
then saved my passwords !
 
Thanks for your help.
