[ ] Evolution			This is a great product. It doesn't seem to be 
addressed to the need of individuals though. It's more aimed at 
corporations that run exchange.

I have very mixed feelings about Evolution. On the one hand, it is a 
great piece of software. On the other hand, it makes it very easy to 
fit Linux clients into an MS office as long as they accept their 2nd 
class status. Suppose some business person asks "If I bring a lot of  
Evolution clients into my business, how do I know MS won't break them 
with the next version of Exchange?"
