[Evolution] How to set up my evolution on another computer using my old .evolution

[Dinbandhu <dinbandhu sprynet com>]

Hello!
I've just gotten a new computer, and want to install my old evolution account onto it. I have my .evolution 
folder, and pasted it into the home folder of my new computer (Ubuntu 8.10) -- after first deleting the 
virgin .evolution folder from the new computer. I started the new evolution application, but it doesn't seem 
to recognize my .evolution folder, as it starts asking all the new account questions. And if I try to 
"import" it as an archive, that also doesn't work-- I think the archive file has to be of a special type. But 
my old computer is broken, and so I can't use it to create an "archive" file.

How do I set up my new evolution to use the old computer's .evolution folder?

Thanks!
