I have an IMAP Gmail account which I have logged in through Apple Mail email client on my Mac book pro. I have sorted out some important emails and made a separate folder for those emails. Is it possible to backup only that email folder and not all the emails along with them? Thanks for your help.

  • Thanks for the solution George. I found Mail Backup X, got the trial version of this application. This is the only thing that I needed. Apart from backing up tool has got a mail viewer and I am also able to select the emails i want to backup. Thanks once again.

In mail.app, you can select a folder and from the main menu choose ‘Mailbox > Export Mailbox’, select a location for the export file and click ‘choose’. Mail exports the mailbox as an .mbox package.
