I think you're a tad confused. Evolution doesn't do _anything_ an
Exchange Server does. Evolution is a client program only.
Compare Evolution to Outlook.
Compare Exchange to HP OpenMail.
For what it's worth, I am a long-time Outlook user, and as far as
Evolution goes, I've been involved with it long before you could
download the program. Evo rocks. It's _better_ than Outlook,
hands-down. Moving these folks to Evo would be a step up no matter how
you slice it. HTML mail support isn't perfect, but you can't really
expect it to be, when there's so much "MS garbage" in your typical HTML
e-mail.
