I think the issue is largely that Evolution is a Gnome application. Any
"official" list - i.e. mentioned in documentation and so on - should,
or really can only, be under the auspices of the Gnome organisation. If
it's not then it's just some other random mailing list.

Gnome users will consistently be pointed towards Discourse as the route
for help and support; the developers will primarily be using Discourse
as their route to helping people and receiving feedback. No matter how
often people are told that "the helpful people are over there", it
would still be unofficial and unlikely to gain traction.
