There are a range of free and open source email clients. Even mail 
servers. Evolution is just one.

I am like Tom and use Thunderbird. I use it for email and maintaining my 
calendar. I personally use TaskCoach for my Task Lists.

If I open LibreOffice Writer and select Send > Document as Email,
the package opens a new email in Thunderbird. It is a matter of just 
setting the Email client in the Internet Options section of the LO 
preferences. In fact I did not even do this. When I installed LO it 
extracted the email client name from the system for me but there is 
always an option to change my preference if I updated by email client.

Some good email clients are available for windows and linux. The absence 
of a client in the office suite should not cause anyone from not taking 
up LO. If you company needs alternatives simply search for free and open 
source email clients and review the results.

A good start...
