You can tie the 2 computers together through a common network or with  
one in target mode. (~ indicates your home folder)

Just move the following files/folders

~/Library/Mail
~/Library/Mail\ Downloads
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist

And for the Address Book

~/Library/Application\ Support/AddressBook

And for Safari

~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist

And for Firefox

~/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox
