I used the howto from http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/03/how-to-backup-evolution/ . Found the source of the problem in the gconf settings, where they store an apsolute path for the location of the mail boxes. Manually editing them corrected the problem, but it should not happen at first. /apps/evolution/mail has many entries, that are dependent on the account and machine used. (found my username, home directory and old machine name on several occasions there.
