Re: [Evolution] Places where Evolution stores its data

[John Lauterbach <lauterba bellsouth net>]

I am using evolution 3.16.0 under Ubuntu 15.04. I use SpiderOak as
my remote off-site backup service. The e-mail in Evolution is very
important to me. In one sense, it is my corporate file cabinet.
SpiderOak backs-up my evolution and other data files when there are
changes.  In addition, when I make changes in evolution such as
adding a folder, I use evolution backup feature.

So, my question is which evolution folders need to be backed up when they change in order to minimize data loss if something goes wrong?

My opinion is that:

1) You haven't said what version of Evo this is, but if it's the one
you used to post your message it's several years out of date.

2) Your directory listing gives no idea of how much space all this
takes up, so it's impossible to say if it's a problem.

3) Evo generally has a directory for each account, but some of these
look older than others. Perhaps some accounts were closed and re-opened, or restored from a backup, or imported from a different machine.
