Check the archives for the recent thread on "Restoring mail etc. to 
Evolution".  Basically, there's various settings under .gconf/apps/evolution 
that will also need to be copied.  Although, when I did that the various 
accounts & identities still didn't appear, but I figured that was just 
because I was upgrading version (1.x to 2.6) as well as transferring the 
data.  Fortunately, the settings files are readable, so I just opened up the 
old ones in gedit and created them again in the new version.  Everything 
else appears to be present.


Andrew.
