Thank you George, I already knew evolution-gconf-tool and I tried to install it under Ubuntu but the make process failed. Moreover the development of this tool seems stopped from years.

There's no real meaning to the digits, it's just an algorithm to generate a globally unique identifier. Specifically, it's constructed from: uid="[time].[pid].[seri...@[host]" [time] Timestamp when the UID was generated [pid]Evolution's process ID when the UID was generated [serial] Meaningless number, incremented for each UID generated [host] Your hostname See evolution-data-server/libedataserver/e-uid.c for more details.
