How to import mail to a different Email Address (Gmail) when IMAP doesn't work with AOL

Something on the AOL server(s) is blocking sync on all of my email addresses stored there.

It was an isolated instance until this week when none of my accounts could sync with there server.

As a result, all of my folders containing mail messages are now stranded on the AOL server(s).

I tried setting one new account up with Gmail and then allowed Gmail to 'import' my mail from the AOL server(s), but it only opened and copied the Inbox, sent, and Archive folders. The rest of my sub folders under Inbox are unavailable due to a server error that blocks the TB client software from opening these folds.

My question is, can the folders stored within different profile(s) be imported into a new Email address while only copying from the profiles stored on my PC? I'd do this off line if possible.

Also, it appears that AOL may be filtering inbound according to IP address as one event in one of my AOL accounts that was debugged made reference to this ...
