[QUOTE="kameelean, post: 310861, member: 25942"] I had to create a new UserID. Before I did that I backed up the info from my old UserID. My MacMail messages were stored in the Deleted Users/Library/Mail folder on my HD. When I launched the MacMail program as the new user, I set up my accounts, etc. but when I tried to import the stored messages, it would only import the messages in folders I created... NONE were imported from the old InBox. So I created a new folder and dumped all the inbox msgs in there and tried to import from that folder. It would only import messages through to Nov 16th of 2006. I called Apple, they didn't seem to know. So I tried to drag all the messages into the new User's Mail InBox folder, none of the old messages appear when I launch MacMail. If I simply double-slick on an individual email it opens and views in MacMail, I just can' seem to import them. I don't get it! They are all .emlx files. I haven't upgraded the OS. Does anyone know why my most recent mail won't import and/or how I can correct this situation? This is so frustrating. [/QUOTE]
