I would like to preserve various settings from my old system, including bookmarks, passwords, old email, contacts, and various folders. How do I do so? The upgrade is from Epiphany 1.4 to 2.2; Evolution is from 1.0.6 to 1.6.0. A simple-minded copying of the old files into their original locations showed that both Epiphany and Evolution did not recognize them. If there is a page describing the upgrade I'd be happy to follow it if a link is provided. Please copy me on any replies; I don't read both of these groups regularly. Thank you in advance!
