When I looked at their presentation it seemed to me they're trying to build an Outlook for Linux. That's a good idea, but it means it can impossibly "far exceed MS Office", your words. Oh well, yes, ok, it exceeds MS Office, since Outlook is not part of MS Office, but it's part of any standard MS installation.

What makes Evolution interesting is more than its Outlook look. It lets you define rules for grouping or "sorting" e-mail in a new way that they call virtual folders. With most e-mail programs you can sort e-mail into folders or live with one huge flat file inbox. Most people choose the big inbox because it makes searching easier. Evolution puts multiple search keys into a database and does this in an automated way based upon the rules you define in advance. This seems the ideal way to organize and access e-mail and make it useful information. I bet MS Outlook and KOffice will announce similar capability before too long. This just makes too much sense. It seems amazing that no one has offered it before. Perhaps, "far exceeds MS Outlook" would have been a better choice?
