For me, the answers are:
- Running Evolution over ssh is excruciatingly slow.
- Once you have learnt your key bindings, you can get things done
much faster than in evolution.
- Mutt is much more customizable than Evolution, including the option
to pipe mail through external programs & such.
I also believe that Mutt is more standards compliant when it comes to
handling GPG/PGP signed and/or encrypted mail, but don't quote me on
that one.
Just my two cents
