Your old mails are in the Inbox of your old profile? Close SM and copy from your old profile the file with the name Inbox to a file with the name Inbox_old in your current profile. The target directory should the one which holds your current Inbox. On the next start of SM you will have not only your Inbox, but also a new folder with the name Inbox_old containing your old mails. Now you can copy or move the mails as normal.
