Quite.  But to make you slightly less disappointed - I don't think
there is a direct method of doing what you want, but as a one-off I
would probably highlight,then cut or right-click the text into an
editor. All bets are off if it's an HTML formatted bit of text.

I second that. I guess I have a right to being disappointed after

I think your quoting and replying is a bit screwed up ...

The VM is on the same hardware as the new desktop.
I open up an sFTP in terminal and send it that way.
Here it is on the VM:
mike@jake:~/Downloads$ ls -l e*.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 mike mike 3415506569 Nov 3 15:17 evolution-backup-20221103.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 mike mike 3412545815 Nov 4 09:18 evolution-backup-20221104.tar.gz
mike@jake:~/Downloads$
Here it is on the platform:
-rw-r--r-- 1 mike mike 3415506569 Nov 4 09:11 
/home/mike/evolution-backup-20221103.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 mike mike 3412545815 Nov 4 09:19 
/home/mike/evolution-backup-20221104.tar.gz
mike@blackbox:/media/mike/My Book/work$
All I do is from "jake" to 'blackbox":
$ sftp mike@192.168.1.93

Hi,
perhaps we are getting closer to the issue. How did you move the data
from the VM to the install on bare metal?
There are plans to hide the option "Backup up Evolution Data..." in
coming versions of Evolution.
Regards,
Ralf

I will but I really think this is a matter of evolution messing up on the 
import of a very large backup file from another computer.
It's a guess, but one informed by forty-five years in IT and five years retired 
and still dealing with IT. The original VM evolution imported the PSTs, not an 
evolution backup.

I will give it a try, but the issue may well be how the import function on 
Evolution works with the file and folder format.
Clearly, that's a guess, but it is one informed by forty years working in IT 
and five years retired and still working with it on a personal level.
