I think it did back in RH 9 days...I don't remember.

That's gonna be a really really old version but I would suspect that if
she can locate the email files, they are gonna be mbox and some utility
should be able to convert them (Evolution offers to do that on first
start if it sees them but I suspect that Evolution has already lost it's
virginity).

Betty...if you can just locate those e-mail files, Evolution (presuming
that you are using Evolution for e-mail), you can use the 'File' menu
and choose 'IMPORT' and then 'From a single file' and see if it imports
the mail.
