This is dconf (think like windows registry), not evolution-specific

You can read with 
 dconf read /org/gnome/evolution/mail/labels > labels.txt

and write at the other side with eg.
 dconf write /org/gnome/evolution/mail/labels "$(<labels.txt)"

if you wan to have a look manually, you can use dconf-editor
