on the debian-user list, Harvey Kelly points me that he had a similar problem going from Evolution 3.0 -> 3.4. points to a mbox to maildir trouble. But he says: "As long as you export/backup your email with Evolution's export facility you should be okay." that's the even more strange point in my question: i have tested using evolution's facilities (backup/restore) without sucess If this is a bug, it's a really big annoying one; something close to an RC. I hope that it will be only a simple error on my procedure Best Regards / Saludos!
