How can I import configuration and e-mails from previous linux installation? Simple folder copying hasn't worked...
What exactly did you try already?
For your interest, Evolution stores your data in
$HOME/.evolution/
your account settings in
$HOME/.gconf/apps/evolution
and your passwords in
$HOME/.gnome2_private/Evolution
(the passwords are not stored encrypted, just base64 encoded). SSL
Certificates are stored in
$HOME/.camel_certs
"How can I transfer all my Evolution data between computers/to a new
partition/to a new computer?"
Make sure you haven't started Evolution on the new computer/new
partition yet.
First of all, shut Evolution and its background processes (Evolution
Data Server, Evolution Alarm Notify) completly down by using
evolution --force-shutdown
Then copy the contents of $HOME/.evolution/,
$HOME/.gnome2_private/Evolution, $HOME/.camel_certs.
Then dump your Evolution settings stored in GConf by running
gconftool-2 --dump /apps/evolution > some-file.xml
where "some-file.xml" is the name of the file the information is written
to.
On the new computer, make sure you are not running gconf (by
ps ax | grep gconf
for example; you normally have to leave gnome for that and then run
gconftool-2 --shutdown
). Then import those settings by running
gconftool-2 --load some-file.xml
and log in to gnome again.
cheers,
andre
