I now have to confess to being more than a little stupid.  So what's new
ask all of my friends?

What happened was this.  I have only just started to use Evolution, and
imported all of my stored emails and address books from Eudora to Evo. 
The process was reasonably easy, but like a total idiot I transferred
all of the content of Eudora>Sent into Evo>Outbox.  The result was that
Evo obviously thought that here was something in the region of 300
Emails to send before the ones I was trying to send at the time.  The
answer was to just transfer everything from Evo>Outbox into Evo>Sent and
the reult is that
Evo now sends Email like there is no tomorrow.
Sorry to be so stupid.  But thanks for all of the help!
