Does right-click on a mail folder / Properties solve your issue? Set the
New Store Format to "maildir" and that folder gets converted.

Once you have set one folder to the maildir format, have a look at the
directory structure and the contents in the ~/evolution/local/
hierarchy. To create new maildir folders bypassing Evolution, see the
XML files, especially the type value of the folder section in
local-metadata.xml.

You probably even can make the mbox/ directories symlinks and therefore
pointing to other directories.
