Not sure where to post this so i figured I'd post it here. I just got a new PowerMac, I moved over all my files and now I need to more over my e-mails. On the old iMac I used Mail in 10.2.3 as I do on the new PowerMac, how can I get the e-mails from the old iMac to the new PowerMac without e-mailing them to myself?
The computer are networked.

Thanx

Just get the folded named "Mail" thats inside your home Library folder and put it in the same spot on the Power Mac.

The easiest way since your networked is to drag the mail folder into your 'shared' directory in users form the iMac. Then replace it in the user folder on your PM as mentioned above. The shared folder is the easiest way I've transfered files.

If your mail is on servers, then mail.app should replace all of your messages when you start that new account automatically.
