That explains it. When you autologin your keyring [named 'login'] was 
not being unlocked automatically, so your keys were not available. (It
seems a bug that when evolution tried to use it it didn't ask you to
unlock it, imho). With auto-login enabled, you can probably open
seahorse and manually unlock the keyring before launching evolution.
This still doesn't ley evolution open automatically, but it's a step.
You might want to change the keyring password to the empty string.
Maybe that way it is possble to use its contents without providing a
password.

Oh, and obviously, make a copy of the keyring before start changing
configurations. You may end up with a locked keyring that you are
unable to unlock.
