When I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04, it completely hosed my Evolution
client. The mbox was corrupted and I wasn't able to send any mail. All
of my old emails were not retrievable.
I found my old outbox and inbox (four years of mail, 500 megs each) and
have backed them up and copied the files to my desktop. I would like to
just copy these files to my new Evolution folder - but doing a search
only pulls up:

/home/wfarmer/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/Inbox
/home/wfarmer/Desktop/Inbox
/home/wfarmer/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/Inbox is the old Inbox
/home/wfarmer/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/Outbox is the old Outbox
On upgrade, I backed up both files to /home/wfarmer/Desktop
So where would I copy this file to? I'm not able to do an import through
evolution as it comes up with errors, so I'd rather just copy the file
over and be done. I'd love to import my old email and recover it, but I
can't seem to import this file.
1) Is this possible? If so, how.
2) How else can I restore this Inbox through the command line?
Thanks!
