I am running 2.32.2 and there is no file/export/.
There is file/import.

Thanks and tried that but get an error window saying ,,

"The folder contents could not be displayed. Operation not supported".

If you show me how to print save that screen and post it here I will do that.

thanks

Can't you just use 'Print Screen' on your keyboard ? If not, got to:

Applications --> Accessories --> Take a Screenshot

(you can play with the 'Grab after a delay of X seconds' - this is how I took the last screenshot)

About your problems, it seems you can ignore it, close the box and apparently the backup should proceed, as written here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1778711

You can also do it from CLI to a tar.gz or with evolution-backup
