evolution looks for password to unlock default keyring, where it (and
most Gnome apps) store passwords. Usually, on fresh installation, when
some application tries to store password for the first time, it asks
you to create password for default keyring.
You can try running keyring manager (seahorse in command line) to see
if keyring was created. If it exists and you don't know password for
it, you can delete it (you will lose any saved passwords, of course)
and it should be recreated when evolution tries to save password
again.

To shutdown, click your user name in right top corner of the screen,
then hold 'Alt' button. Suspend menu item will change to shutdown.
There are some extensions that make shutdown menu item permanently
visible, just search this archive for it.
