Evo is/was very solid for me. I've been using it for years. I still use it now on FC7 for all my mailing lists. Only reason I moved to Thunderbird on another machine is that it runs Vista instead of FC. I really only had 2 complaints about EVO. 1) It did not seem to handle LDAP very well. Our LDAP directory contains several thousand entries. I believe it was limited to the 1st 1000. I cannot confirm that, nor can I confirm the EVO version I was running. 2) I also connected to my corporate mail (Lotus Notes) using IMAP. When I would delete messages they would "disappear" or become hidden on Evo, but if I used the Notes client the messages were still in the Inbox. I also didn't seem to be able to use Folders. Maybe there were settings that I could have modified this behavior, but I did not see any. Thunderbird handles both of these situations a lot better. The trade off I think, is that Thunderbird is a little bit slower. Good trade off for me since now I do not have to go back periodically and cleanup my Inbox with the Notes client. Don't get me wrong, I really like Evo, and if there was a stable Windows version I might still be on it. My $0.02.
