Change the default Gnome theme of Evolution to the light theme. This is because I don't like the black theme of evolution, but each update reset the modification.

Raw

set_evolution_light_theme.sh

sudo vim /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Evolution.desktop  -c %s/Exec=/Exec=env GTK_THEME=Adwaita:light /g

It says in Ubuntu vim not found but I have vim installed. What now the dark theme is driving me crazy :')

What does

>>> vim

return ? If it is installed then it should work.
Anyway, you can edit the .desktop file with any tool you want, add the env GTK_THEME=Adwaita:light to the Exec line
