Where does Evolution store all of its data?

Hi all,

I just installed FC4 to my internal hard drive and mistakenly told the
installer to format my home partition.  Oh well, that's what backups
are for, right?  I do have a backup and have been restoring things
selectively instead of just restoring the whole thing.  Since FC4
moves to a new version of Gnome, I thought that it would be better to
re-customize anything I wanted to change from the defualts than give
it all the old configs.  But I really would like to have Evolution
come back with all my mail, accounts, calendar, etc.  Unfortunately,
Evolution seems to keep some stuff in more directories than just
.evolution/.  Like I have found that there is a .gconf/apps/evolution/
directory.  Even copying both of those directories over, I still have
to reconfigure my email accounts (Evo comes up with the add first
account wizard) and it seems all my mail gets dumped back into the
inbox instead of being nicely sorted.
Does anyone know exactly where Evo keeps all of its data so that it
doesn't think that it is starting over from scratch, or at least
without accounts?  Can I just copy over some files and have Evolution
come back up like nothing had changed?
