extracting all From email addresses for On My Mac Mail

hi all.

 

trying to do a final organization here after porting to mac OS.

 

i am trying to extract all emails from my archived mail in the "On My Mac" section of my mac pro. this means that this data will no longer be accessible from my laptop machine or from my iPhone when traveling. in a lot of cases there will be incoming mail from recipients whom i /may/ not have replied to or whom i did not reply to within Mac Mail (i am coming from PC land and i have used Postbaox before ditching this software awhile back).

 

i realize that i have the opportunity to ADD emails from the Previous Recipients section of my Mac Pro and from my MacBookPro - however in the case of mail that i am archiving on the Mac Pro this option is not available.

 

can anyone help me get from here to there (having some kind of list of my important email addresses) so that i can go through this list and either keep it on hand or add the important ones manually to my Contacts? i would say that alternatively i would be happy to bulk add these to the Previous Recipients list on my Mac Pro but this data is already somewhat out of hand and the fact that it resides only on my desktop until i add the addresses to Mac Contacts (as does the Previous Recipients List on my MacBook Pro and presumably on my IPhone).

 

i ran a google search and came up with the following links which i am going to print out and try and muddle through so any advice on this would be really welcome.

 

THANKS
