I'm afraid I'm guilty of not paying much attention until I'm forced to, but now my wife has finally decided to make the jump from her old OS 9.0 machine to an Intel Mac, so I'm awake now.

How can she get her Emailer files from one machine over to another client on the other? It seems like all the discussions that I've noticed involve moving from Emailer to another mail client when both are on the same machine.

This seems to be the issue many are running into.

My honest feeling, Emailchemy (hey, I remembered the name... oh, its in the subject line... never mind), may be the best route. You can run it on the OS 9 machine to export all the mail from Emailer into whatever format you can then move to the new machine and import into the new email client.

Humm... I do wonder, since Mail uses AppleScripts to do the import, if it would be possible to hack the script slightly to work over a network and use remote apple events to drive Emailer on the old machine handing the mail to the new machine. Or of course, one can always do the direct Emailer to Mail import on an OS X machine that is PPC based, and then just move Mail's storage folder to the new Intel mac post import (the same should apply to any other email client that can do a direct Emailer import).
