Nov 8, 2015 9:02 AM in response to jopniby Paul_31,★HelpfulYou'll likely find that all your emails currently exist on both your computers - so they should still be there on your new computer as well as the old one. If you don't want email on the old computer you can simply turn off the email account on that computer in Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab and deselect 'Enable this account'.

Unfortunately i don´t have my emails on my new computer. Do you know what can I do to send back the mails to my new computer?

Nov 8, 2015 9:53 AM in response to jopniby Paul_31,★HelpfulDo you know it the email account is an IMAP account, rather than a POP account? In Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Account Information, what is noted against 'Account Type' - IMAP or POP?

Nov 8, 2015 10:01 AM in response to jopniby Eric Root,If it is an IMAP account, the e-mails should download on both computers. Have you checked for new e-mails on the new computer?

Nov 8, 2015 10:02 AM in response to jopniby Paul_31,In theory, if the accounts are both setup as IMAP on each computer, with the exact same login credentials and with the account enabled on each computer the emails should be available on both devices.
Worth double-checking that all the login credentials are exactly the same on both Macs and that 'Enable this account' is ticked in Mail>Preferences>Accounts. That's how I'm setup on two Macs and both have exactly the same emails showing.

Nov 8, 2015 10:05 AM in response to Eric Rootby jopni,Yes. And everytime I work in the old computer If I open Mail, every mail I have on the new computer migrante to the old one, and no one stay at my new computer. And plus, if the mails go the old one, the mails on the iPhone go to.

Nov 8, 2015 10:08 AM in response to Paul_31by jopni,For many years I have the old Mac (white) and the iPhone, and I have the mails on both devices. As I introduce this one, it happens the same, but after I download the Capitán....problems !
