You can define different "Sent Items" and other folders for each of your
accounts. I think, you cannot define different Inbox folder for POP3
accounts, but you could set up filters according to the source account
(I use this for my Gmail accounts). The "Trash" folder is a virtual
folder that exists for each account that you create (ALL: if I'm wrong
here, please correct me :)

Export your contacts from TB in a LDIF file and import this LDIF file in
Evolution.

Hope this helps.
