When the plugin isn't available, you can manually backup evolution:

Step 1:
Shutdown evolution and gconftool-2:

$gconftool-2 --shutdown
$evolution --force-shutdown
Step 2:
Create an archive with the data and configuration files:
Note: To completely save the Evolution data and configuration, you
need to save the following directories/files:

~/.evolution/
~/.gconf/apps/evolution/
~/.gnome2_private/Evolution
The following command will take care of these
$cd
$tar -cvzf evolution-backup.tar.gz .evolution .gconf/apps/evolution
..gnome2_private/Evolution

Now the file evolution-backup.tar.gz is the backup you want. You can
move the data over to another Ubuntu computer if you like, and just
un-tar the archive while in your /home/username/ directory to restore
it.

To restore, use:

$gconftool-2 --shutdown
$evolution --force-shutdown
$tar xzf evolution-backup.tar.gz
$gconftool-2 --unload evolution_setting.xml
$gconftool-2 --load evolution_setting.xml
