Well let me explain about the environment. The mail server limits the
size of mail account to a fixed size. And from work I use mutt. So, to
get around the size limitation, I started saving mails in folders in my
home dir, which has a greater size limit. Those folders are in MH.

evolution and it is a new toy right now :) Unfortunately this means that
the local MH folders are not accessible when I  am using evolution.
