Since Evolution 1.3.x most of the configuration is stored using GConf
instead of the old ~/evolution/config.xmldb file. See the directory
~/.gconf/apps/evolution/ for your settings, or use gconf-editor.
AFAIK you simply can delete this directory, to start from scratch. Force
Evolution to completely shutdown by running
$ evolution --force-shutdown

Yes, ~/evolution/local/Contacts/ is the default Address Book directory.

Again, close Evolution and run 'evolution --force-shutdown' before
copying / overriding the contacts.
