CentOS - Sep 2016 - An 'orrible question: Outlook 365 under wine on CentOS?

The only linux-based client that, if I recall, can speak native MS mail
protocols, was Evolution.

I don't know if it still does.

Yeah... and this is O365.

Stupid question: if I check out evolution... will it munge my thunderbid
email inbox or folders, or could it read them, and just create its own
indices?

If they're both reasonably well-behaved mail clients, they should
generally leave each other alone. I've not had major issues doing
Exchange or OWA from one client, and IMAP from thunderbird -- but I've
not tried evolution in a LONG time.
