I haven't personally used Evolution for any considerable time since the
first time that I used it with Ximian. What features it has were more
like an improvement of Outlook Express (also I tested this out when it
was beta)
Thunderbird has the multithreading feature that I like. It has a more
appealing feature list and seems to be a great mail program.
Mozilla is nice for me because it has mail, html editor and browser that
are developed as sort of a suite of programs. With firefox and
Thunderbird being seperated and no html editor for GNOME (that I know
of), mozilla seems like the ideal default.
