I get a mailbox in Mail that is called "Import" (with a grey icon)
and a mailbox within called "ylan" (with a blue icon) that
contains the imported messages. So far, so good. I can know
process the messages inside the "ylan" mailbox.
Mailboxes that have a blue icon are mailboxes that have been
created by the user or by Mail for use by the user. All other
mailboxes are those with grey icons or with special icons and are
created by Mail for some special use only by Mail. (Inbox, Outbox,
Junk, Sent, Trash and account mailboxes).
Indeed. The mailbox in question was created by Mail while performing
an import operation. However, this one I can delete manually, which
you can't do for the ones you mentioned.
There is a more technical explanation whose details I don't
completely recall at the moment, but if you look at the folder
structure within the ./Users/<username>/Library/Mail/ folder, you
will certainly see these details.
Yes, as I mentioned, the difference between the gray mailbox and
every other blue one is that under ./Users/<username>/Library/Mail/
Mailboxes it's the only one who's folder name doesn't have a ".mbox"
ending.
