I believe you should close evolution and run 'killev' from the
command-line before copying your ~/evolution directory.  

This stops wombat which is the back-end to your Contacts and Calendar
information.  It should also resolve any problems you have with your
mail folders as well.

I personally haven't tried it but this is from my knowledge of evolution
and also from passed threads.
