I have upgraded from Catalina to Ventura. How do I retrieve the Mailboxes and emails that were previously On My Mac? I know that over 10,000 messages were transferred to Mail, but I cannot find the Mailboxes that were previously in On My Mac.

The most trouble free way to move to a new machine, is using the Setup Assistant on the initial boot of a brand new machine— you have one shot here. Set up your MacBook Pro - Apple Support


The second best way is use the Migration Assistant.
