It should work as long as the Berkeley DB library is compatible with
that used on the "older" computer. EDS used to use its own copy of it,
but it was dropped in favor of a system libdb.

Here might be some useful information too, I guess.

Nonetheless, playing with internal evolution files is highly
discouraged.

I've not much idea about python bindings on EDS side, the nearest I know
are some python binding for plugins in evo itself, but it's far away
from what you want.

Here's an example how to open a system address book and read emails from
contacts stored there:
