I second fixing existing bugs before adding features. I have to restart Evolution and/or goa-daemon several times a day because account connections "go stale" (for lack of a more technical description). And I have pretty frequent problems adding events to a calendar from an email invite. Also, this isn't an Evolution problem but it impacts Evolution functionality - Seahorse seems incapable of fully managing PGP keys (I get lots of general errors when trying to do simple things like trust or sign a key, or import new keys from servers). I really appreciate all the hard work that developers do to build and maintain free software, and don't want to sound like I'm ungrateful. I just think it'll be better for existing users and for recruiting new users if developers of the Gnome ecosystem spend more time ensuring a bug-free experience before pushing forward with new features and projects (do we really need a Recipes app when the keyring manager isn't fully functional yet?). Sorry for veering off topic.
