Wow, that's handy, because every time I upgrade, recovering my mail
from Evolution to Evolution is a right pain in the neck. It does not
support import of all data and settings from itself (seriously, that's
a pretty silly misfeature), so you have to import mbox by mbox, and
when you have a complex folder structure like I do...

Or maybe I'm just doing it wrong, I wouldn't be surprised.
