Dear all,
after a new installation, I started moving my existing data to the new
machine.
Here is the status of what I found out and got working so far.

eMail
- not tried yet and not sure how to do it

contacts
- all data is stored as single vcf files (one file per contact) under
.local/share/contacts/private/
- copying those files to the new machine to the same location and the
adding a new address - source in KAddressbook pointing to this directory
makes akonadi to crash

calendar
- all calendar data is stored in .local/share/calendar/private which is an
vcs/ics - file
- copying those files to same location on the new machine
- adding a new calendar resource in KOrganizer (Kontact) and pointing to
the file (added as iCal file)
=> Success: Calendar entries are shown as expected.

notes
- still trying, no success yet. Lost all data several times already in the
past.


cheers,

Denny
