Hi Dizzycrow,


I understand that you want to move some email folders from your MacBook Pro to your MacBook Air. I know it's important to have control over your data, so I'm happy to provide some help with this.


The easiest way to transfer multiple files between devices is often through Migration Assistant. That being said, this feature may move more files over than you'd like. You can read more about it here:

For transferring only your email, it may be best to export your mailboxes from your MacBook Pro so that you may import them to your MacBook Air. You can see how to do that here:

Mail (El Capitan): Import or export mailboxes


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities, and have a great rest of your day. Cheers!
