No, because it's not a cache then.  The cache just contains local
copies of data downloaded from the server (plus a few oddities).

Deleting .cache/evolution is *the* way to do it - but make sure all
evolution components are not running before you do it.

Certainly evolution will create the cache when it starts, but that's
not copied from anywhere. What I suspect you are seeing is information
that isn't stored in the cache. Have you tried simply deleting the
account in evolution and re-creating it?  If it's 7 years since you've
used the account data, then it definitely needs to be deleted and
reconfigured - removing the cache will not do that.
