  Hey there! You won't be able to copy the mail files like that and have them work. I would create the new email account, and then manually forward the messages over to the new address. With only abotu 100 messages, this won't take too long, and will ensure everything is created properly.

  Imapsync is amazing - I'd recommend it.
