evolution mail export

[Bernhard Meindl]

Hi there.

Evolution saves mails that are in folders in .mbox format by default. So
you should be file to backup the
folder /home/yourusername/.evolution/mail and reimport the mails in
windows using mail clients that support the mbox format, thunderbird
should to the trick :)

cheers,
bernhard
