you need to add the groups to an ESourceList. That is, first get the
correct ESourceList:

	source_list = e_source_list_new_for_gconf (gconf_client,
"/apps/evolution/addressbook/sources");

then add the groups and the sources, and then, call e_source_list_sync,
so that the new source is saved immediately to GConf.
