Please note: You should do this *before* starting the new Evo for this
user account the first time.

Or even better, before starting GNOME for that account. If the GConf
daemon is already running, copying this data doesn't have the desired
effect. Thus with GNOME running, you nee to stop the gconf daemon and
evolution-data-server first, before copying the data.

$ gconftool-2 --shutdown
$ evolution --force-shutdown
