Status: ASSIGNED
Severity: normal

Evolution stores contact lists as a special vcard:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
REV:2009-10-06T06:58:07Z
UID:pas-id-4ACAEA7F00000001

FN:alias
X-EVOLUTION-FILE-AS:alias
END:VCARD
This extension of the vCard standard is not currently supported by
SyncEvolution >= 0.9. It used to be supported in SyncEvolution < 0.9, because
that version passed through the special properties unchanged. However, I'm not
aware of any SyncML server which stores these extensions. According to Mark,
ScheduleWorld doesn't:

We should figure out what the individual X-EVOLUTION extensions mean and then
support as much of them as possible for direct Evolution<->Evolution sync.
Preserving the UID in the contact list most likely doesn't work, because the
UID has no meaning outside of the local Evolution instance.
