moving smart mailboxes from old mac

Hopefully this is the right venue.

I am trying to import my smartmailboxes from my old MacBook Pro running Lion to my new iMac running Mt Lion. All systems fully updated.

I copied the smartmailboxes.plist, the smartmailboxes.plist.back, the versionedsmartmailboxes.plist and the versionedsmartmailboxes.plist.backup folders from the old comp and put them on the new one.

Opened Mail, they did not show. Created a new smart mailbox to see if the iMac would read the plist. It didn't.

Advise?

Thanks!

Alberto.
