well the imap solution would have been my suggestion as well.

I know you can get Google sync and sync his contacts with a gmail
account, also handy to sync the email on the same acct if they create
a new one.

i cannot remember if Google will sync with evolution however.

Alternatively you use the IMAP fro the email store and you use a CSV
export for contacts.. then edit the resulting spreadsheet and then
import.
