So where are my email and calendar entries from the past two weeks? I 
have a backup of my .evolution folder, but it's not there.  Where is 
they kept, so I can recover them? I have a full rdiff-backup backup of 
my old home directory, but I can't find them anywhere there.

Btw, I was using a completely updated version of Ubuntu 10.04 and it was 
still keeping all my email in ~/.evolution.
