Multisync? I couldn't find that. I'm using 2.2.1.1 I thought since I could keep the mail files, I should be able to keep my addressbook files also. I copied them to a disc, and copied those files to my new machine's /.evolution/addressbook/local/system/ Acutally, thinking about it, I just copied addressbook.db and not the summary. I thought the new system would build it's own summary, it seems like it did somewhat since those contacts weren't visible immediately. Now, my contacts screen is full, but Evolution still says it's empty.
