Hi, 

My mail server did some nasty things the other night, and I was forced to 
rebuild without a backup to restore. Most users were ok since they had cached 
copies of their emails, and could copy them to local folders, and the re-create 
the server in their client and copy them to the server's folders. 

I have a predicament where all of my mail is still in 
~/.cache/evolution/mail....., but evolution will not let me copy the messages 
to local folders from the GUI since the IMAP server is offline (I am doing all 
of this unconnected, and not accepting the new cert for the new machine), so I 
cannot easily move them back and forth. 

Does anyone know of a workaround for this? I just need to get the emails from 
an offline account into my local folders (either the GUI or copying the files 
somewhere will be fine by me). 

I got Outlook, Thunderbird, Mac Mail to all do it successfully, just not 
Evolution - and of course I am the only one who uses evolution. I do not care 
about settings, etc - just the email since it is my only copy. Dropping to a 
shell and grep'ing through my Sent folder is not my choice for the future when 
I need to find something :) 

Thanks in advance for any insight! 

-Greg
