Fix Apple Mail stuck on Moving Messages

This was what worked for me (I don't have mail for icloud)

  1. Exit the Mail app completely and launch Finder.
  2. Click on the Go menu and hold the Option key to make the ~Library option visible on the screen.
  3. Then open the Mail folder and select the V9 version (or older if you’re running an older OS version).
  4. Next, open the Mail Data folder, and delete all the filters that begin with the Envelope Index.
  5. Clear the Mail app from the library as well. Go to ~/Library/Saved Application State/ and remove com.apple.mail.
  6. Launch the Mail app again. Wait until the app finishes importing your messages.
