Title:
  E-mail not working out of the box with Online Accounts

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I've just did a clean install of Ubuntu 20.04.

  Post to the installation I've been asked to configure some credentials
  by the Online Accounts wizard, which I did with Gmail.

  Everything went well until I've tried to read my e-mail: Thunderbird
  was installed and not set automatically.

  Drive was reachable, Calendars too, but not e-mails.

  After some research I've found that Online Accounts works only with
  Evolution, which isn't installed by default.

  I've installed Evolution via Ubuntu Software and it worked!

  Then, I've tried to remove this useless Thunderbird client. I've
  started to look at Ubuntu Software and Thunderbird was proposed to be
  installed, even if it already was...

  I've installed it anyway, then uninstalled it.

  The original copy was still there!

  The only way for me to remove the built-in Thunderbird was with the following command line:
  sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove thunderbird

  From a end user perspective, I suggest to not install Thunderbird by
  default and add Evolution to the default install list.

  It will improve the first contact with Ubuntu for the end user.

  Thanks for your work anyway! It's pretty impressive of simplicity so
  far.
