1) My sent folder is local.
2) Yes; there are 4 from 2009, 1 from March 3, and 2 from yesterday,
although I sent quite a few more than that yesterday and probably send
out from 6 to a dozen daily.
3) Select File > Backup Settings > evolution-backup.tar.gz and then copy
that file to an external disk.

I hope that is enough info, and I apologize for not knowing enough to
include it with the original question.
