No, but I would have used a totally different approach.
With readpst you can convert a pst file to a mbox file (standard
Unix/Linix mailbox file).
I'm not familiar with Evolution, but according to one article I found on
teh interwebs, you can just drag&drop a standard mbox file in the
Evolution window, and it will import the whole file.
Perhaps my way is not the recommended way, but I'm a text mode person. :)
