About this backup tool:

The idea with this was to, hopefully, give someone a little hand, and perhaps inspire the real developers to get export/import tool, with GUI.

Why not make it in GTK?
Because i lack knowledge in the gtk api.

PLEASE, USE WITH CARE!!
IMPORTING, WILL OVERWRITE EXISTING FILES/MESSAGES!!!!

Basic usage : 
to backup your hole local mailbox, do : 
evolution-backup export backup.tar.bz2 /
(where the / acctually means, in my case, /home/smurfd/evolution/local/)

to backup my friend mailbox, do:
evolution-backup export backup-friends.tar.bz2 /Inbox/Friends
(where the /Inbox/Friends acctually means, in my case, /home/smurfd/evolution/local/Inbox/subfolders/Friends)

to import my friend mailbox, to its original place, to another user do : 
evolution-backup import backup-friends.tar.bz2 /Inbox/Friends
(where the /Inbox/Friends acctually means, in my case, /home/smurfd/evolution/local/Inbox/subfolders/Friends)
(if they dont exist, they will be created)
