I try and use it for about a day whenever I do a fresh Fedora install. 
It's got all the outlook bells and whistles but as others have stated it 
loses connection to them and then hangs.

It seems to be getting gradually better. I have used it connected to my 
Exchange 2003 at work ... and it sometimes would need the 
evolution-exchange backend process restarting.

I am currently using it to connect to dovecot IMAP and it seems mostly 
stable...

But in the end I use Thunderbird and Lighting to do calendar and email.
