Evolution has always been a problem to set up. Finally it Asks if I want to make it my default email client? That is good, but there is no way to make another email client my default email. In addition, I miss the windows style minimize and other buttons. An extra step is now required and this leads to less intuitiveness for newbie window converts.

I have struggled with Evolution for years now. There should be a button in the Preferences drop down menu that allows users to easily set up there own email clients with having to hassle with Evolution.

By the way, you can change your default mail client in System / Preferences / Preferred Applications.
