I found the following article, though it sounds like you¡¯ve already done some of them. ?Note that it can take quite a bit of time to download messages after rebuilding mailboxes and some other actions.
I¡¯m sure that you¡¯re already aware of the following, but it bears repeating. ?Your ¡°On my Mac¡± mailbox is just that, exclusively on your Mac. ?If those aren¡¯t duplicates of messages on your email server, then they are the sole copies of those messages. ?

Yes - ?my mail has been slowly getting worse and worse about where folders are. ?Today Mail bit the dust - The messages go to the wrong boxes, ?very very old messages show up from ????, my emails go through but I can¡¯t read them - ?I wonder if I¡¯ll be able to read this (if there will be anything to read) when it gets to me as part of this group. ?
MacBook Air Sonoma M3 16gb
Sonoma 14.6.1
Mail - 16.0
I have 2 accounts -
SBCglobal.net - main account
Google (for some mail and a couple other things, Notes)
iCloud
Mail also sorts them in SBCGlobal.net *or* something called ¡°On My Mac.¡± - ?It seems that different senders/recipients have folders in one place or the other but these have gotten mixed up very badly over the last few days.
Help! ?I tried ¡°Rebuild Mail¡± and some things changed but it keeps ¡°Moving Messages¡± - ?even right through a ¡°restart¡± of everything. ?I think the count down there at the bottom of the mailboxes list on the far left is ?"Moving Messages 1 of 10.¡±
