Yes, I suppose you still have the option to install Evolution and enable

No, I think it's still in the Ubuntu archive, but it has been moved from
"main" to "universe", which means that Canonical has no responsibility
for further maintenance.

Sure, mentioning Evolution as an option is fine IMO. But only if it's
really still available in the archive. (I'm not in Xenial right now.)
