Why is the rendering of html messages so different in Evolution and

If I remember correctly, that's because Thunderbird uses the Gecko rendering engine (used by Mozilla) and Evolution uses libgtkhtml.

Right. Although evolution should be switching to WebKit at some point, which ought to improve its HTML rendering quite a bit.
