Right-click on the account and select "Subscribe". I'm not sure about
evolution, but thunderbird allows you to subscribe to folders like they
were newsgroups. I'm not sure which imap software you are using, so I
just presume courier-imap ;-)

In the addressbook go to tools -> import. There are several formats to
import from. Again, I'm not sure of evolution, but I do presume it can
export entries in certain standard formats (ldif, tab delimited, comma
separated). Export them from evolution in one of those formats, and
import them into thunderbird.

Well I hope this helps ;-)
