Is there a way to make the OLDER e-mail file information backed up from a previous version (2.32.3) of Evolution to be compatible to the a NEWER version (3.6.2) of Evolution ?

When I attempt to import/restore the old info into the new version of Evolution, I get a message that basically says that this backed up info is not compatible with the newer version. Is this due to the NAME of the backup file which is "evolution-backup.tar.gz" or is it strictly that the info in the file is not the correct format for use in the new version of Evolution, i.e. can I get the info to restore to the new version by possibly renaming the backup file ?

Thought I would ask before trying it !!!

Thanks.
