Since the InstallFest I have made the switch from XP to Ubuntu as my desktop. I was previously using TBird in XP but now I use Evolution with multiple mailboxes in Ubuntu . Evolution is much better in that you can set up signatures rather than vcards for e-mail messages and many other features. It the Linux version of Outlook. Easy to set up and I have had no problems with it.
I'm personally not all that fond of Evolution. I've tried it a few times and always found myself going back to Thunderbird. It just feels unpolished, slow, and lacking in features (I use Outlook 2003 at work, and while I don't like it, I would compare it favorably to Evolution). The fact that Thunderbird has the very handy vertical column view, while Evolution still does not, is also a point against. Just my thoughts.
