Is there any way to move 'Message Filters' from one account to another? Must change email accounts.

I have to change my email accounts by the end of the year. I've been manually moving folders and emails from old account to the new. Then I would like to copy 'Message Filter' from the first account to the next.

Is there a guide or an app to do this? The Message Filter is probably the most important thing I need to do.

Filters are stored in msgFilterRules.dat in the account subfolder of Mail or ImapMail in the profile, e.g. Mail/pop.gmail.com. The dat file can be copied between accounts.
