This makes no sense. If you post the URL of where you found this advice
it might be clearer why they're telling you to do this.

As has already been pointed out, simply updating Evo should migrate all
you're settings and preserve your mail. There's no need to do anything
else unless you're moving to a different machine. Updating Evo from one
version to another is a routine procedure which people do all the time.
If you're nervous about it, by all means take a backup first just in
case, but removing the old Evo to install the new one is absurd unless
there's something seriously wrong with your installation.
