I haven't tried kontact, but evolution also sucks because it copies the non standard ui crack that outlook has.

Personally, I find that Evolution integrates to GNOME in a better way than Outlook to Windows. At least the widgets are not too different. Unfortunately, it seems to have some oddities with IMAPS (like asking for the validity of a SSL certificate ad eternam and not showing the Inbox of a certain account) and some stability issues. Of course, YMMV for the latter, I just don't seem to have luck with Linux. Every distro I have tried got stability issues with GUI applications. But that's something debatable elsewhere...
