I am looking to import an MBOX (gmail takeout file) to a new Gmail account. I ultimately want to get the contents of the MBOX saved on Gmail's cloud for the new account. I have the new account set up with IMAP enabled. I run into an issue with import export tools and have attached a screenshot below. Is this possible to do with import export tools for an account set up that way. If not, how can I get the MBOX saved locally onto this new Gmail account with it ultimately saved on Google's servers. Thank you so much for your help!

To import a takeout mbox, remove the .mbox extension so the file has no extension, Help/Troubleshooting, Profile Folder, Show in Finder, close TB, copy the mbox file into Mail\Local Folders, restart TB.
