Do you have any additional advice, tips or tricks, on transferring the
messages and account info? I don't have any problems with the contact list
and message rules
Thanks in advance.

Yes, many things from OE can be ported, such as messages, accounts and
contact lists, but I believe that the rules can not be ported at all, and
for your case, the only solution is to ask for sighted assistance for the
rules creation.
Note: for the contact list, I exported a comma separated value (CSV) from
OE. Here in windows mail, I couldn't use that because here the all columns,
such as first name, last name, email, etc, were treated as only a single
column. I couldn't made the proper mapping between the columns, and
therefore I build up my contact list from scratch using my messages in my
inbox (not that hard: right click and add sender to address book)
If you want to configure WM in future, I recommend to export the contact
list in other formats too, such as WAB,etc.
