something along the lines of...

shutdown all users evolution
move all users .evolution to .evoloution.hold
for each user
ln -s /mails/john/.evolution /home/john/.evolution
ln -s /mails/ron/.evolution /home/ron/.evolution
...
for each user
mv .evolution.hold/* /home/$user/.evolution

or you can use tar rather than renaming and mv'ing....
