Review & Alternatives
"Integrated mail, addressbook and calendaring."
Overview
Evolution 3.3.2 is a handy mail client, calendar, address book, and task list manager that is included with the GNOME desktop. Being an open source software, developers are free to enhance and expand upon the Evolution source code, making it a relatively comprehensive program.
Installation
The installation process is self-explanatory, and the file size is extremely compact. While it is possible to install Evolution on a virtual machine within any operating system, it must be installed within a partition of the Gnome desktop.
Interface
The Evolution user interface is split into four main left panes - Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Tasks. Clicking the mail pane shows you the folders (i.e. - inbox, junk, sent items, trash etc.) of the e-mail address you're logged into. Lining the top of the main window are simple buttons that facilitate the basic e-mail actions - Send/Receive, Reply, Reply to All, Forward, Move, Copy, Print, and Delete. Overall, the user interface is simple, yet provides easy access to a vast array of advanced options and settings.

Cons

Not compatible with more popular operating systems like Windows or Mac OS X.

Not the most robust of its kind, although it is the best for the GNOME desktop.

Given the extensive number of features, a slight learning curve may be required before you can take full advantage of the software's functionality.
Alternatives

Being a free, open-source software that has been in development for nearly a decade, Evolution is an advanced utility that continues to evolve as more developers gain interest and share their ideas and innovative plug-ins.
