I want to make the Mail account on my MacBook look just like the one on my MacPro. I copied the Mailbox folder from the MacPro to the MacBook, but it doesn't look anything like it does on my MacPro.

Any suggestions?

I take it this is not an IMAP account? I would get yourself an IMAP account right away, ditch POP, and you won't have these sorts of problems.

You need to copy the whole Mail and Mail downloads folder from your user library to get the whole account. However I concur with Bess. An IMAP account is a no brainer.
