14 Right-click on the account and select "Subscribe". I'm not sure about
15 evolution, but thunderbird allows you to subscribe to folders like they
16 were newsgroups. I'm not sure which imap software you are using, so I
17 just presume courier-imap ;-)

24 In the addressbook go to tools -> import. There are several formats to
25 import from. Again, I'm not sure of evolution, but I do presume it can
26 export entries in certain standard formats (ldif, tab delimited, comma
27 separated). Export them from evolution in one of those formats, and
28 import them into thunderbird.
