Are you connecting to a POP or IMAP client?

Thunderbird ? As it's a mozilla product, you can use lots of different addons

But it depends also what you don't like about evolution...

Again Thunderbird is probably your best bet. If you would like something console based though alpine is really good.

I am a big fan of mutt. http://www.mutt.org/

It is my console Email program of choice followed by alpine.

For GUI, I go with Thunderbird.

sudo apt-get install thunderbird

Thunderbird is good, but why even bother with clients. Use Google's gmail or for business Google Apps!
