Thanks for your response Falko,
changed username from 'username' to 'username@mydomain.com'
Evolution now receives mail for
username@mydomain.com, but I tried to reply to my gmail address and had an error sending... below is the evolution account settings and the error...

***error when 'Check for Supported Types' button query***
for Authentication option;
"Failed to query server for a list of supported authentication mechanisms.
Could not connect to urbancampsite.com: Connection reset by peer"
note: evolution doesn't mind self signed SSL, it pops up a window displaying my SSL cert' details with option to continue even though 'signature:bad'... which it does fine (because I trust the certificate)
I checked the ISPConfig firewall to make sure the correct TCP ports are open...
