Hi, 

After 4 years of working with Evolution , I had to temporarily shift to
Outlook. I am happy that after a month I am able to shift back to
evolution. 

While working with Outlook few things struck me :

1.  All  Outlook feature (I required) are present in Evolution. 

2.  The GUI in Outlook is better. The font size and toolbar size is
smaller and hence it gives a better view. I am yet to figure out how to
change toolbar and font size in Evolution (under KDE).

3.  Outlook is  definitely slower than Evolution.

4.  One important feature / convenience for Outlook end user is that
they don't have to compile the software / new version. I had a nightmare
compiling  Evolution 2.12. As an end user I would love to get a compiled
(rpm) of new stable version.    

5.  In Outlook calendar I can give different colors to my follow-up
categories. I understand this feature is not present in Evolution
2.10.3 

6.  The filter rules worked more consistently in Outlook

7.  Outlook has more import / export features than evolution. 


Folks, these are my observations. As a loyal user of Evolution I would
like to see how evolution scores above Outlook in every aspect. 

Comments are appreciated.
