Re: [Evolution] evolution 2.0.1 all hosed up

Folks, I posted the FAQ mentioned below, so anyone else can answer with
a link. Sigh, seems I need to read a few hundred more mails, to sort
them out... ;)

Here's how to force migration:

Be careful and read the caveats! This will overwrite all your Evolution
2.0.x data and start over with the 1.4.x data. Thus you will lose any
changes and added data (like Contacts, POP3 mail) done with 2.0.x only.
