Yes.  Just copy them as normal files.

If the popups are there, it doesn't stop it checking later, so you can
just leave it there and ignore it.
I think it would be great to have an option to disable those popups for each account, too.
Also it would be nice to have an option to make Evolution dial into the internet automagically
when fetching mail (ie: let it execute a custom shell command before fetching mail)
