[Evolution] Tranfer of accounts
I am trying to transfer an account from an old computer to a new one. I made the back-up of the complete directory of the user. Then I copied the following files in the new folder.. $HOME/.local/share/evolution $HOME/.config/evolution $HOME/.cache/evolution $HOME/.gconf/apps/evolution But when I start Evolution, I get the account assistant running and I don't see the old account. Where is my mistake??? -- Antonio Montagnani Skype : amontag52 Linux Fedora 16 Verne ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

But when I start Evolution, I get the account assistant running and I don't see the old account. Where is my mistake??? Use the backup and restore function from within Evolution - i.e. create a backup file in the old Evolution and restore it with the new Evolution.
