What exactly are you trying to achieve?  Do you want multiple palm
devices, one for each conduit/profile pair, or do you have just one palm
device?  If you've only got one palm device, is it possible to use the
'categories' field in the evolution contacts to control where it appears
on your palm device?

The short answer is that there's no way to do it (that I'm aware of) and
that you'd be better off addressing your question to an evolution forum.
The Evolution conduit is not part of the gnome-pilot distribution, and
so you should make a feature request to the evo people directly.

By the way, I'm not familiar with 'profiles' in Evolution.  I'm running
version 2.0.2 and I don't see them anywhere...  But if I understand
correctly, I guess the approach would be to have a single evolution
conduit that had a mapping from gnome-pilot palm IDs to Evolution
profiles.  I reckon your suggestion is feasible, because (I think) the
conduit config gui can query the list of configured devices, and can
save info to a config file.
