Whether you meant to copy all directory, subdirectories and files such as /home/satimis(user)/evolution/local/*.* and in case of problem after upgrade, all/some mails in their respective boxes lost, edit all .xml files including "mbox, mbox.ev-summary and mbox.ibex" back to new mail boxes created for such purpose. What I need to retain are only "inbox" and "sent" boxes. What is "directory hierarchy"? Kindly advise. Thanks in advance.
