i want to say my hat's off to you guys and all you do.  i have an idea
for the next update of evolution...
could you make it so when i close it the program still runs in the
systray?  i like deluge because it minimizes to the systray and pidgin
for the same reason.  even rhythmbox too.  everything runs great on  
the
program; that's just a feature i am looking forward to
Note that minimising to system tray (at least by using the standard  
minimise or close buttons) is a behaviour rather frowned upon by  
GNOME's usability folks, however :)
Minimise buttons should minimise, and close buttons should close.  If  
you want to add a button that does something else, then fine, do that  
and call it something else.  But please don't make the minimise or  
close buttons do things they're not supposed to... 
An option to set what the close button does (close/minimize) is all it
takes. 
-1 Options bad.  

<aside>This is one [of the many] reason GNOME is far more productive an
environment than KDE.  More options == more code == more effort.<aside>

Close closes, minamize minamizes.  The systray is gone or reworked in
GNOME 3 anyway.

Several programs have that option both on Linux and Windows. If
you want to follow the advice of the usability crowd don't enable this
option.
I'm using alltray and have edited the menu to open Evo in the tray (or
is it called notification area these days?) using alltray.
Personally I do not not care who frowns of what as long as it works for
me! :)
If you use something like a dock (GNOME-Do, etc...) then minimize may be
pretty much what your asking for [since you aren't closing the app
anyway].
