Evolution should open up import wizard on first-run, to import
settings/data from older evolution . Did this happen ?

Reset gnome settings from a virtual console ( make sure, you have not
logged into gui) , and re-run evolution
$ mkdir gnome_old
$ mv .gconf* .gnome* gnome_old
Log back into gui, and run evolution . This should start up evolution's
import wizard assuming "evolution" directory has not yet been
moved/removed to ".evolution";
Final option, importing mailbox individually or try copying the folder
from older "evolution" to ".evolution" .

I doubt RHL/CentOS in query will be top of the priority, as these people
receive tons of query on RHEL itself.

my bad. this for copying evolution setting from one system to another,
and not migration .

CentOS3 ( evolution 1.4x , i believe ) to CentOS4 ( evolutiopn 2.0.2 )
migration is know to work in majority of cases .;
