My email accounts on Apple's Mail after migration from iMAC Ventura 13.4.1 to MacBookPro samme OS. I have tried to use the Apple Migration Assistan to copy my current iMAC 27" mid 2019 with Ventura 13.4.1 onto a MacbookPro 13" late 2019. All seems to work fine, but, the 3 email accounts I need badly, do not connect, seem like the problem is the Passwords did not migrate to that MacBookPro. I have done the samme migration to another iMAC 21" and it worked fine, all 3 open and so on. Does anyone out there that has an idea of why it does not work on the MacBookPro? The problem too is, that is keeps asking me about the Passwords for each e-mail account, and I cannot even remember it. Where can one find the key-chain info on passwords. There is a single place under Settings/Key, but after loggin in as adviced, nothing is there. Where are they so, when they are actually working well on that 27" machine? Thanks in advance for any help on this issue. Ignacio

If you don't know your email account password you can probably retrieve it from your Mac Pro. Use Keychain Access.

What is Keychain Access on Mac?
