Then, when I import the mbox file, I can choose whatever location I

import them to the inbox of an account other than the one they came
from originally.
That my main problem : I cannot choose the destination (beside the
fact that the messages that appeared are from a different mbox, but
this is too weird to be true….). Have you tried to import your mbox
into something different from an Inbox, like a specific mailbox?
I am using an older version of MailMate: 1.13.2 (5673), so everything
I'm doing and saying depends on that. I have not looked at any newer
versions yet.
I have an "Options" button in the lower left of the dialog box that
comes up when I choose "Import Messages..." from the File menu. This
lets me choose a destination for the imported messages. I've only
tried a couple but expect that anything would work.
I am using version 5937, but I don’t think it is different. I have the
same Options button, but it only suggests one destination. HOWEVER it
also proposes a choice of Sources, and this is where the destination
folder can be selected. What confused me is to call Source a destination
folder. Now it works.
I don’t see a “Select export folder” : I use the Copy to mbox
command under Bundles-Export, to export.
Hmmmm... on the Command->Export menu item, I have a submenu with three
items: Copy to Folder, Copy to mbox, and Select Export Folder. The
last one lets me select a location where the results of "Copy to mbox"
will end up.
In fact I previously exported dozens of mailboxes (that end up in a
folder on my desktop), which I then saved locally into Thunderbird
(for archiving purposes, as discussed previously), but then I wanted
to reimport one that I still needed, and this is where the problems
began.
