Look into "Fink". I tried it when it was new and didn't keep it. Not
that I gave it much of a chance to grow. I just didn't need what it did
at the time.
I did a search on the Fink site and Evolution comes up, but I don't know
how well it will work.
Also, and I have only heard of this and how it works, there is Gentoo
Portage.

Supposedly you can use this to install (or build from source) most linux
apps to run on Mac OSX. I am not versed in this at all, and what I know
about is infinitesimal. But it is probably worth looking into.
