If you don't use either, it's far better to remove them from your
system, although i think in the case of Evolution you can't do this
without breaking the ubuntu-desktop meta package.

Even if you don't use software, it still represents a risk (albeit a
lower one) if it is installed on your system.  I would suggest removing
Thunderbird and updating Evolution whenever a security update is
released.  I usually configure my systems to automatically apply
security updates.
