The only thing that I've ever found that's reliable is to Log Out of GNOME, and then from a console vt run rsync to push my entire home directory from one box to the other. Anything short of that missed settings and worse would corrupt your address book because evolution-data-server hadn't safely close down. I actually use this quite successfully presently to pass my environment between desktop and laptop. Of course, there's the restriction that I only use one at a time, but hey. If I'm moving to my laptop it's cause I'm going out/abroad/whatever, so it doesn't matter. Script with the rsync command line attached in case anyone is interested.
