When I transferred information from my old iMac to the new one the mailboxes under ON MY MAC did not transfer. How do I recover them?
iMac 21.5″, macOS 13.3
You might try exporting those mailboxes from the old Mac, and then importing that info on the new Mac.
Please see: Import or export mailboxes in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Recreate the mail accounts on the new device and emails will follow right along.
