I use Linux at home and Mac OS X at work. The only way I know to
maintain compatibility between mail clients on both platforms is to
use standards-based network protocols: IMAP for mail, LDAP for
addresses. Otherwise, data will get lost, no doubt about it...
That said, you might be able to get Evolution to compile and run on a
Mac -- but that's only a guess. I can say, however, that the Mozilla
Thunderbird mail client works quite well on OS X. (Pine, too, but
that's a fairly acquired taste these days. :-)
Also, many people know and like the Apple Mail client.
