assuming the original poster has got a reason to chose Ubuntu other than installing it just for using a particular mail client, it's not a solution to migrate to another Linux distribution. Ubuntu has got its pros and cons. I'm using the 16.04 LTS, as well as Arch Linux. Since the software versions provided by 16.04 are old, they don't suffer from a few annoying issues, that affect all other distros using more current software versions, this is a warning, but way too off-topic to go into details. The major issue with Ubuntu flavours and Evolution in general is, that Evolution is provided by the universe repository. Other then the main repository, the universe repository is not maintained by Canonical, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu. Current Ubuntu releases migrated back to GNOME, but they didn't make Evolution, the GNOME mail client, the default for Ubuntu installs. I don't know how well or bad Evolution works for 16.04, due to bad experiences with running Evolution on Ubuntu in the past, I only run Evolution on Arch Linux. IMO the OP should send a request to https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users and ask, if there are known issues related to Ubuntu 16.04 and Evolution and if so, if there are workarounds available, such as Evolution provided as a snap. If there should be a snap available, it's important to ask, if there are known issues, due to the sandbox approach. After clarifying "things" on the Ubuntu users mailing list, it might be worth to send a request to https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-devel-discuss . This is not the developer's mailing list, it's a discussion mailing list, the "Point of contact for Ubuntu users to reach Ubuntu developers".
