Does dragging produce any different results to Command -> Export -> Select Export Folder,
Dragging produces `.eml` files (raw RFCx822 emails equivalent to what is store don the IMAP server). These are indexed by Spotlight (using a plugin included with MailMate). The “Command ▸ Export” adds emails to an `.mbox` file using the `formail` command. The filename is based on the IMAP folder path.
and can the results of either or both methods be re-imported using File -> Import Messages ?
Yes.
What does Command -> Export -> Copy to box actually do?
Appends the selected emails to a `.mbox` file within the selected export folder (by default this is `~/Desktop/MailMate Export`). The name of the `.mbox` file is based on the IMAP mailbox path of the selected emails (this might be multiple files).
