Hello: This is very easy to do. First do command-shift-h which brings you to your home folder. Navigate to your library folder, once there look for a folder called Mail.
This folder contains all your account settings, rules and mailboxes you created. When you get the computer just copy the folder on top of Library saying yes to copy and replace. Take care, John On Oct 25, 2012, at 8:30 PM, Danny Noonan <da...@familynoonan.net> wrote: > I'm taking my mbp in to the apple store tomorrow and strongly suspect they'll > recommend a clean install.
