I just got a new MacBook Air
And I only want to transfer my email from my old MacBook Pro. The Air does not have enough memory to accept all of the stuff from the Pro.
Is it possible to transfer only the email? And, if so, where would I find them to transfer?

MacBook Air, macOS 14.5
Unless you are using a very outdated email protocol such as POP3 on your old Mac, there may be no need to "transfer" email at all. If you are using a typical major email provider such as iCloud, Microsoft, Gmail, then just add that account to Mail on the new Mac and it will connect to the server to make your mail, contacts, and calendar from that service available on the new Mac.

To add to the guidance provided by @FishingAddict above, if you have mail saved in mailboxes listed under "On My Mac" in the Mail app, then you can transfer those by exporting from the source Mac and importing them on the target Mac. Apple's guidance for that is here: Import or export mailboxes in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
How can I transfer just emails from my old MacBook Pro to new MacBook Air?
