KMailCVT: 3

[Vincent Batts]

hello again all,
i have been accustomed to evolution for contact,calendar,email
but tonight i migrated to Kontact for everything, and it looks like it
will be a good transition.

but during the migration, i had to do some manually foot work to get
kmail to import the evolution 2.X mailbox
kmailcvt would fatally hang because it was trying to process the
*.ev-summary-meta files that are in the $HOME/.evolution/mail/local/
folder, i got around this by creating a seperate folder with xymlinks
to the "Inbox" "Sent" ,etc. files, that i guess are just the mbox
files themselves.
after looking through the 'filter_evolution_v2.cxx' file in the
kmailcvt source, it seems it may be difficult to validate an mbox file
that doesn't have the extension .mbox, unless there are headers inside
the file itself, but maybe there could be an exclusion added to not
import the files with 'ev-summary' or 'cmeta' or 'ibex' appended
