<div>Dave, you still do need some of the files from the Applications Support folder. Most importantly is sources.plist, identities, and mailboxes. I’m doing this from memory (also on phone), but look at the pliers, and their names are pretty telling. If you’ve
modified keybindings or similar, also look in the Resources folder for more plists. (In general don’t copy these unless MM is closed, fyi). I think there is also a help page somewhere about this, I’ll send it if I can find it quickly. </div>

<div dir="ltr">My problem now is that I copied (Opt-drag) the com.freron.MailMate.plist file from the Big Sur ~/Library folder to the Sierra ~/Library folder and launched MM. It shows me the empty Account Settings panel. Since this file, as it’s listed in the
BS ~/Library folder, has the exact date of my BS computer’s failure, I’m sure this is the right file.</div>

<p dir="auto">Dave,</p>
<p dir="auto">One way could check out, the copy with CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner), if you have it or maybe a good excuse to get it as a demo.</p>
<p dir="auto">Or a similar product that works around the restriction altogether. That app allows you to access the User Folder and select a file/group folder(s) to copy/replace. Also you could port both the preferences and settings files at the same time.</p>
<p dir="auto">I have not tried this copy on different vintages (from Big Sur to Sierra in your example), so YMMV. </p>

<p dir="auto">If I want to retrieve MM settings from a Big Sur boot volume that i cannot boot from on this computer (Big Sur is not compatible on this new-to-me old Intel mini that I’m installing Sierra on), how do I get access to the Library folder in the
