Prevent data loss when deleting unused Mail accounts
I had this problem too, with an old POP account, when I started using my IMAP .Mac account as my primary. With POP accounts, if you delete the account, the messages disappear...but if you re-enable the account, or re-create the account, and point it to the same mailbox under ~/Library/Mail, the messages will RE-appear. I was able to recover my messages, and left the account active (but turned off automatic checking), and never thought of just moving them to my new account. I just did that and was able to safely delete my account.
