Between Evo 1 and Evo 2 there was a lot of changes in the formats - specifically it changed from using the '~/evolution' directory to store everything in to using the '~/.evolution' directory. If '~/.evolution' exists, it won't import. Similarly make sure that '~/evolution directory exists. You only get one chance to do the imports because the initial import sets lots of gconf keys - evo assumes that the import has been done if any of these keys exist. There used to be a program around from Ximian (when evo was a Ximian program) to reset all the import things - but that was a long time ago, so I don't know if you will be able to find it now.
