Since everything is using evolution-data-server (particular the Gnome pieces) these days, I like to do this from one of the text-mode consoles (GUI not logged in)... On source machine: $ evolution --force-shutdown $ tar czvf mailtransfer.tgz ~/.evolution ~/.gconf/apps/evolution ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution ~/.gnupg Copy that file over to the target machine: $ evolution --force-shutdown $ gconftool-2 --shutdown $ cd $ tar xzvf mailtransfer.tgz HTH, --Rob
