Mail email import .emlx files

[djp_phillips]

Is there a way to import .emlx (email files) from the Library > Mail > .emlx into the Mail program? Up until now I could only open one by one these emails from the icons in the folder (after I changed computer, I took my emails)

I use emlx to mbox Converter.

Thread is a bit old, but since Google popped it up rather high in the results, I thought I'd share what I did to directly import .emlx message:

• Quit Mail;
• Placed my .emlx message into the wanted mailbox (Inbox, Sent, Draft) under ~/Library/Mail/POP-myemailaddress/ ;
• Renamed the .emlx message to 999999.emlx to avoid possible conflicts;
• Opened Mail;
• Selected said mailbox in Mail;
• Selected menu Mailbox->Rebuild;

That's it. After rebuild, which took a minute or two (large mailbox), message was there. In the Library folder, I could also see that it was renamed by the index rebuild process.


Hope this might help someone,
