    Exclamation Lost Evolution E-mails and contacts

    I upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy using a live cd because the update manager locked up and didn't finish the upgrade. I chose the option during upgrade to import all documents from Gutsy(evolution e-mail and setting and such). It set up the account but did not import the e-mails or contacts. My Question is, Where are they and how do I get them back? Or, are they lost forever?

    Is there a directory named '.evolution' in your /home folder? In other words, what is the output of the command:
    Code:
    ls -a | grep evolution
    Also, did you create any new user accounts or modify partitions for any reason? And is /home on its own partition or under / ?

    I found the folder in another partition that was made from the import. I was able to retrieve my mail and contacts. Thanks for the help!!!
