Is it possible to transfer preferences and emails from the old to the

Yes, if you want to move (almost) everything then make sure MailMate is
not running and then copy this folder:
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate
Note that the Library folder might be
[hidden](https://www.noterepeat.com/articles/how-to/70-mac-os-x-accessing-hidden-library-folders).
If you have never launched MailMate on the destination machine then you
could also copy this file:
/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist
After launching MailMate this is a bit more tricky because of the system
[caching
preferences](http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20130908042828630).
Finally, if you want to refetch emails from the server(s) then you can
just copy these files and folders (the ones that exist):
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/*.plist
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Bundles
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Resources
Most users only have the `.plist` files. Using this approach you still
need to re-subscribe to bundles in the Bundles preferences pane.
I think that is all you need to know.
