I tried using Evolution a few years ago, but repeatedly hit problems where if I deleted text while composing an email, "Undo" would not restore it. I filed a bug, which was eventually closed with "we've changed some things around that might have affected this issue, please try to reproduce when the next version is released".
Looking at their issue tracker[1], this kind of thing seems to be a common complaint, rarely resolved with an actual direct bug fix. Most charitably, I assume that Evolution is designed for a use-case or workflow I don't have.

- pabs3 3y agoThat delete bug doesn't happen for me with current evolution. The biggest problem I have is the composer window often isn't exactly the same as the sent mail (especially for plain text mail) when it comes to whitespace and quoting. Enabling the Outbox feature is a good workaround as it lets you see the mail before sending it, and you can adjust the mail until it is correct.
