Hello, I transferred my emails from online MAC to local folders on an external drive, then re-copied them as my local folders on the WIN laptop... Yet after re-starting, the emails subject only shows-up while the message shows 0 bytes, despite the Inbox file shows >8GB, but is not recognized/read by the app. (seems to me indexing was lost?). Tried to import the file from the app's tool, but it didn't work as the tool expected a profile or outlook file. Any help to migrate my emails in a readable format? Thx.
