Smart mailboxes in Mail

Hi,


I have just replaced my iMac with a new one. I had about 250 smart mailboxes set up on my old iMac and wondered if I can copy these over to the new iMac?


I have right clicked and exported and then imported but that only brings the messages into folders on the new iMac. I want to bring the smart mailbox settings on to the new iMac to save typing 250 out again!!


Any help is greatly appreciated.


Many thanks


Mark

Yes, use Migration Assistant. If you connect your Time Machine backup External Hard Disk from the old computer to the new one and launch MA, it will migrate your data, apps and even settings if you want.
