If you like Thunderbird and are used to it, I'd stick to it.  I've been
using it for a long time and have found it to be very stable.

Every now and then I play with Evolution and haven't found it to be as
robust. I haven't spent a lot of time with it.

If you like an Outlook style mail client, you might want to put in more
effort to Evolution.
