It stores some data in gconf, so you may check there did you check filesize and so on of this files ls $HOME/.evolution/addressbook/local/system/{addressbook.db,addressbook.db.summary} ? where did you store your contacts ? and what kind of account were you using ... i.e. with exchange contacts are stored in global address book on the server, so backup of the local mailbox data is not very helpful I don't know if gnome has a separate address book like kde does but in this case it is possible to be on another place and not in the addressbook.db file regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
