Stay with KMail. Evo is fine if you want a calender, addressbook and 
mailreader all rolled into one. Evo does all that, but it is not very good in 
either of these fields. I have not found a way to bounce mails, etc. which 
was so annoying that I switched away from Evo again. It can handle GPG/PGP 
encrypted mails, but it does not do so very well either.

The big pro of evolution is that it is fast. It used to be the only mailer 
able to handle my huge mailboxes (up to 65K mails). That was the reason why I 
started using it. Nowadays kmail is as fast, so I'm back with that.
