#Outlook mac move all messages prior to date pro
Potential problem alert: There’s a good chance that this won’t work if the name of your user account differs on the two Macs-on the iMac that account is called “Wally” and on the MacBook Pro it’s called “Wallingford,” for example. If it doesn’t, you can put things back the way they were by removing the items you just added to the Library folder and replacing them with the original items you moved to the desktop. Now launch Mail on the MacBook Pro and your should find that it contains the same messages and mailbox structure as Mail on your iMac. Copy the versions of these items from the iMac to the same location on the MacBook Pro. On the MacBook Pro navigate to that same Library folder and move its Mail and files to the desktop for safe keeping (you’ll likely be prompted for your Administrator’s password). Before leaving the Library folder, open its Preferences folder and copy the file to your MacBook Pro as well. Locate the Mail folder inside the Library folder and copy it to your MacBook Pro. Quit Mail on your iMac, move to the Finder, and from the Go menu choose Library (if you’re using Lion, hold down the Option key and click on the Go menu, the Library entry will appear). If, on the other hand, you want an exact duplicate of your email from the iMac on your MacBook Pro, that can be done as well. Your messages will be imported into an aptly named “Import” folder that appears under the On My Mac heading in Mail’s Mailboxes pane. Navigate to the Recent Email.mbox item and click Choose. In the window that appears be sure that Apple Mail is selected and then click the Continue button.
On the MacBook Pro, launch Mail and from the File menu choose Import Mailboxes.
