Hello.
My client lost most (thousands) of his e-mails on his IMAP servers, but he still has most of them as local
copies in his old 2012 13.3" MacBook Pro (MBP)'s mac OS Mojave v10.14.6's Mail app when I checked offline
(no wifi connection for Internet). I tried to move his thousands e-mails to new local folders, but they
didn't move at all. They get stuck at the first one. I am trying to save them before he uses his MBP's and
to his iPhone 11 Pro Max's Mail apps online again. I am hoping I can put them back on his IMAP servers and
iPhone with this method.
Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)
Right-click: "Export Mailbox..."
Assuming that works, File menu: "Import Mailboxes..."
Wow, quick answer. I like! That worked. I have most of the local e-mails exported and imported. Now, I
just need put them back into his IMAP servers and his iPhone which will take a while (all night?).
