My 2008 17" MBP was a recent victim of the failed nVidia chip. My circumstances at the time meant I had no option but to buy a new Mac straight away, whether or not Apple would agree to replacement (which they didn't, but that's another story ...)
I've been running the new machine a few weeks and have now got my recovered data back from the old machine. The old machine was running Snow Leopard and I'm now on Mountain Lion. I would like to be able to pull my recovered emails back into Mail. I notice that the new version of Mail uses a different folder structure for emails, so I assume copying across the plist and Mail Library wouldn't work, even should I want to do that. Which I don't because I now have a month's worth of emails which I don't want to lose either.
Is there any way of adding the old emails to my new mailboxes and having Mail recognise that they're there?
