Why use Evolution instead of Thunderbird and its Lightning calendar add-on?

I was using Thunderbird as my only mail and calendaring client for almost 18 months until one day it stopped receiving mail. The Thunderbird/Mozilla IRC channel failed to provide a fix for me so I decided to try Evolution instead and thats how I learned Evolution has several advantages over Thunderbird:

    You need at least two add-ons for Thunderbird to enable Exchange calendar support. I never had a problem with Lightning not working after an upgrade but every time you update Thunderbird you risk losing calendaring if the add-ons don't work with the new version. Evolution includes an (optional) Exchange Web Services module as standard for those who want to use it with Exchange.
    Evolution has better support for IMAP than Thunderbird. This is most notable in that Evolution supports mail folders created under Outlook. Such folders are invisible to the user under Thunderbird. Evolution also highlights high-priority emails unlike
