I am using OS X 10.6 and Office 2011 for Mac. I have to add an additional mailbox to my account, but can't figure out how to do that on a Mac, as the options under tools doesn't exist (as it does on a PC). Choose the location for the Mailbox in the dialog that appears: Choose your email service (like iCloud) to access your Mailbox on your other devices, such as an iPhone signed into the same email account. Choose On My Mac to access your Mailbox only on your Mac. Name the mailbox and click OK.
Create a top-level folder. Select a folder at the same level where you want to create the new folder.
From the Home tab on the Ribbon, click the New Items button, and then choose Folder at This Level. The new folder will appear as Untitled Folder, with the name editable. Re-title it by typing the new title in the text box. Create a nested folder. Select a folder in which you want to create a new folder. From the Home tab on the Ribbon, click the New Items button, and then choose Folder.

The new folder will appear nested in the folder you selected in step 1 as Untitled Folder, with the name editable. Re-title it by typing the new title in the text box. Delete a folder. Select the folder you want to delete by clicking on it to highlight it. From the Home tab on the Ribbon, click Delete. Create a folder.

In the navigation pane, click Mail, Contacts, Tasks, or Notes. To create a sub-folder, select the folder under which the new one will be created.
Select Organize New Folder. Type a name for the new folder. The above procedure explains how to create a subfolder of an existing folder.
To create a folder on the same level in the hierarchy, select a folder, and then press SHIFT + OPTION + + N. Delete a folder. Double-click the folder you want to delete. Select Edit Delete.
Question: I have followed all the instructions on how to archive and save Mac Mail folders/emails and have saved one folder to my USB to test it out. When I plug the USB drive into the PC and run the software, it says it can’t find any files ending in.mbox or.mbx even though I can see folders ending with that suffix.
Can you tell me what the problem is? What if my Mac Mail application does not have an? What should I do if my Mac OS X Mail application do not allow me to archive mailboxes?
Answer: Right click to the Mac Mail folder containing emails and use the “ Export Mailbox” option to save it into mailbox file. Do the same for other folders to archive them then Please don’t read below if the Export function is available and you may use it.
If the “Export Mailbox” option is not available (older Mac Mail versions) you may need to find the folder containing the source mailboxes. Older Mac Mail versions store emails in.emlx files and don’t allow to pack them into mailbox format. So you have nothing to do with email archiving option. You have to find the proper mailbox location and use the “ Mailboxes” folder for the further conversion. Note: Mac Mail may create several similar folders but the proper one is that which stores files with.emlx extension. The message store location depending on Mac Mail application version and edition. How to Find and Open the Folder Where Mac Mail Stores Emails Do the following to find and open the folder where Mac OS X Mail v2, v3, v4 and above keeps your messages:.
Open a new Finder window. Go to your home directory using the Home toolbar button or select Go Home from the main menu. Open the Library/Mail/ Mailboxes directory This will open up the correct directory where your Mac Mail stores emails. Usually this directory is called Mail and contains multiple sub-folders named the same way as your email accounts. POP accounts and IMAP accounts are named with prefix POP- and IMAP- respectively. Each account folder contains multiple sub-folders for your Mac Mail folders such as Inbox, Sent Items etc. The folder called Mailboxes is the main storage for your emails.
You should copy this folder including all subfolders and files inside to the Windows PC and use it as the Source Folder for the Mac Mail to Outlook Converter. Take the following steps to open the folder where Mac OS X Mail v1 keeps your messages:. Open Mac OS Finder application. From the main menu select “ Go” item. Choose “ Go to Folder” menu item (You can also press Command-Shift-G). Type in “/Library/Mail/V2” (for Mac OS X Mail 5-8) or “/Library/Mail/V3” (for Mac OS X Mail) This indicating the location of the lication of the Mac Mail v1.0 mailbox.
You have to use this folder as the source for the conversion.
