Hi Kevin,

When I switched from Mozilla to Evolution about a year ago, I exported
my email addresses to LDIF (as Match mentioned) and then used the
Evolution Import command (see the File menu in the Contacts folder) to
import the LDIF list as a single file.  Worked very nicely.

And never mind the derogatory Evolution comments from others.  ;-)  The
current version has a number of speed improvements and its hard to beat
Evolution's features list.  I've been using it for more than a year and
am quite happy with it.

Ed
