<p dir="auto">With <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">export</code> (and <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">import</code>) Bill means arguments to the <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">defaults</code> command. Curiously, these are not documented in the man page of <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">defaults</code>, but they are listed if you, e.g., run the <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">defaults</code> command without any arguments:</p>

<p dir="auto">To be more specific, something like this should work:</p>
<pre style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:5px 5px 5px 5px; margin-left:15px; margin-right:15px; max-width:90vw; overflow-x:auto; padding:5px" bgcolor="#F7F7F7"><code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">defaults export com.freron.MailMate ~/Desktop/MyMailMatePrefs.plist
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">And then on the new machine:</p>
<pre style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:5px 5px 5px 5px; margin-left:15px; margin-right:15px; max-width:90vw; overflow-x:auto; padding:5px" bgcolor="#F7F7F7"><code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">defaults import com.freron.MailMate ~/Desktop/MyMailMatePrefs.plist
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">(I haven't actually tried the above.)</p>
<p dir="auto">As noted before, I think simply copying the file should work if you haven't yet launched MailMate on the new machine.</p>

<div style="white-space:normal">
<p dir="auto">Yes.</p>

<div style="white-space:normal"><blockquote style="border-left:2px solid #777; color:#777; margin:0 0 5px; padding-left:5px"><p dir="auto">Before installing MM? or is there a window between install and launch?</p>

<div style="white-space:normal">
<p dir="auto">Do it before launching MailMate. If you fail to do that then you can just delete the contents of the folder first.</p>
