Evolution 2.26.1 Memos/Tasks/Calendar works similar as Apple iCal.

It supports different labels. Ie. it supports you label your memos/tasks/calendar and then allows you to enable or disable showing certain labels (and many other specific settings such as giving the labels their own color).

It also has an advanced search feature which allows you to search (and hence 'filter').
Had a look at Evo 2.26.1 - much better than 2.24(last version i tried).
There are still a lot of major no-nos:
- No journal(memo is notes)
- No timeline view - big no-no
- No text autoformatting(see my first attached image)
- No way to cutomize toolbar (xml file editing is no good) - big no-no
- Filtering is not part of a single custom view - huge no-no.
- Filtering by categories doesn't let you specify text - only set category names - big no-no
- Outlook migration requires 3rd party tools - COME ON
.... lot's of others

No way I could make a move yet.
With Intel putting Evo devs on their payroll things might get patched up by 2.40 i hope. That is all wishful thinking on my side, of course.
