Pine supports IMAP, I think Evolution does too.

So run a IMAP server on your machine and give 'localhost' as the IMAP 
server address to Pine and Evolution.

Then you don't care about mailbox formats, only the IMAP server cares
about that.  Sequential access to the IMAP folders by differing mail
clients works well.  Concurrent access can have some issues, none major.
