[Evolution] How much email can Evolution handle?

[Moazam Raja Eng Sun COM]

I am thinking of migrating my email from Mail.app (from OS X) to 
Evolution and would like to know how much email Evolution can handle. I 
have roughly 3.5Gigs of email (local) which I keep. Can Evolution handle 
this size? Does anyone here have Evolution running with multiple Gigs of 
email?

The reason I ask is because I've tried to migrate to Netscape mail and 
it simply barfs when I have alot of email, and hence is useless for me. 
I'm hoping Evolution will save the day..
