	Hi,
a very old post [1] contains a shell script to reach each folders.db
file in a subdirectories of the current directory. The directories
changed since then, it's `~/.cache/evolution/mail/` and
`~/.local/share/evolution/mail/` and the command you want to use may
also differ.

Let me ask, what did happen that you need this heavy hammer, please?
The SQLite databases are quire durable, even with the postponed write
to the disk the libcamel uses. I did not see them broken for many
years, including the reports from the users.

	Bye,
	Milan
