Hi :)
It is part of the same question. I'm just having to reach a lot further back
than i expected.
Lets look at another tack. Why is Evo having to drop from a 6 monthly to a
1/year release? Does it lack personnel? Do the devs often find themselves
caught-up in answering questions instead of doing coding? Why aren't more
normal users able to help users with common questions?
Regards from
Tom :)

Please start a NEW THREAD when having a new topic. Your question has
nothing to do with "downloads page".
To answer your question: Because Evolution is a MUA[1] application and
not MTA[2] application, and because there is no need to reinvent the
wheel. If you want an MTA, use Sendmail or fetchmail. If you want a
command-line MUA, use Mutt or something similar.
