Speaking about URIs: They where really annoying every time accounts
where moved.
I would suggest to drop the URI like it is and handle it always like
this:
$HOME/$EVOLUTION/suffix
Doing it that way, moving accounts gets a whole lot easier. And as long
as there are no different profiles, there is nothing more to struggle
with... ;)
