Hi,
I hope someone can help me with this...
I just got my first Mac a few weeks ago, with Panther, and got Mail set up and working, and got a bunch of mail.
When Tiger came in the mail, I couldn't figure out how to export my email, so I just drag-n-dropped my mail boxes to the desktop, and they became .mbox format folders, which I backed up to CD.
Now I can't for the life of me figure out how to get them back into Mail!
I tried the Import feature, and it always says "Error: no valid mbox file was found."
I also tried just putting the mbox folders back into my Home/Library/Mail/Mailboxes folder, and the folder shows up in Mail, but the messages don't.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
Mark
