Better would be to move existing mail folders onto an IMAP server (e.g.
Gmail or Fastmail). For modest amounts of mail, Evo can do this with
drag and drop. For large mailboxes it's probably more convenient to use
ImapSync (http://imapsync.lamiral.info/). Note that you still have to
transfer contact information and filter rules separately.
