I'm afraid, AFAIK you cannot get rid of (or scale down) any of those.


You are correct, that Evolution is a mail client. But especially the
search bar really is useful, not to say essential to me on a daily
basis, once I got used to it.

The gray bar with the current folder and the mail counts seems to be
dropped in the mock-ups for the 2.0 UI.
