How to get mail prefs and emails to another Mac?

Hi,
How do I take all my accounts and emails to another Mac? Just copying the ~/library/mail folder doesn't copy the account data. When I copy that folder to another Mac, Mail does not recognize the account data.

Hi current,
In addition to ~/Library/Mail, copy over ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist *This is a very important file which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences.
Then launch Mail. If it asks to import anything, decline.

    I am unable to start or select the MAIL app. No incoming mail and no outgoing mail. I do not even know how to get an answer without email. Can you help?

    Thank you Carolyn, How helpless you can feel without this App!
    Going into the App Store as you suggest, I see 'thee updates available", the first says, 'X RESTART', the second says, 'Garage Band, an error has occurred" (in red), and the third 'Memory Clean, UPDATE'.
    Am I correct in thinking that OSX is the problem, because it is waiting for a restart?
    Kind regards,

    I changed my primary email and icloud is still set for my old email. I tried deleting my icloud but it aks me for the old password associated with the old email that I don't have anymore. Any other sugestions on how to get icloud to change emails on my ios?

    I figured it out! I changed my email & password at the icloud site, then when I deleted the icloud account on my iphone - it still showed my old email but when i typed in my current password it went through. I was then able to sign back in with my current email and password. That was too easy for the amount of time I have put into this!  Glad its finally fixed.

    How can i transfer all my datas and email form old Mac G5 to new iMac ?

    Generally Mugration Assistant will suffice importing all Data ito a new user, but you can manually import it...
    Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
    Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
    (Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)

  • How migrate all mail (boxes and accounts) from 10.6.8 on Mavericks (without Migration Assistant)?

    How migrate all mail (boxes and accounts) from 10.6.8 on Mavericks (without Migration Assistant)? Install the system (10.9.1) on a blank disk, copied the program and set up manually. Mail accounts and folders does not work to install and configure. Migration Assistant does not want to use, as it copies everything, and you only need to e-mail. Read a lot, but nothing works.

    Try reindexing the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
    Reindex messages.
    If that doesn't work try deleting MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3.
    Quit the application.
    You need to look in your user Library. Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Mail/V2/Mail Data/MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3.  Move the file to your desktop.
    Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the file from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return thefile to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you prefer to make your User library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.5. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • It's my mail content, and email is to me, but the "To:" field

    Hi - this seems to me to be an odd problem, but I have an issue in mail - I use a pop gmail account -
    It's my mail content, and email is to me, but the "To:" field on the incoming mail address is someone else's name... I've checked my mail preferences, my name and the correct email address is everywhere that it is supposed to be... I've logged on to my gmail account and checked all the preferences there, but still, incoming mail on my MAC is showing someone else's name ??? Why? What have I done now?

    Someone may have entered your address with the BCC: (blind carbon copy) option so the mail is sent to you but your address doesn't appear in the header.

    Thanks&Regards

    Hi Ram,
    Use the FM "STATUS_READ" to read both the system and user statuses for an Order.
    Alternatively, the following tables store the user and system status info:
    JSTO- Status object information
    JEST- Individual Object Status
    Hope this helps.
    Let me know if u need further information.
