Right he is. ;)
This has been mentioned previously, so you might be able to find
discussions about it in the archives. Just a few short comments.

This must be the Windows version. The issue is, Mozilla does not know
the pst format natively, but it does use the Windows libraries for
importing.

You even can import mbox files by simply drag-n-drop them into any given
mail folder.
If you are going to import a lot of mbox files, it is possible to create
the Evolution internal directory structure by script and copying the
mbox files. Have a close look at your local mail folders and make sure
Evolution is closed by 'evolution --force-shutdown' before. And be
patient on the next Evolution start, as it will index the new folders.
FYI: This will be way more easy with Evolution 2.0, as the directory
structure is the same as the one Mozilla uses.
