When opening a project on another machine (with other paths than the other machine) the export jobs must be deleted, because the path is full qualified and did not exist on the machine. So I don’t understand the Mixdown folder within the project folder structure. Why the path isn’t relative?!
So, please, if selected the Mixdown folder in the export, the path must be relative, so an export can be done on all machines where the project will be opened. Also try to export on Win and vice versa is also not possible.

Also, I think the export could be relative even if in a different folder than the session folder if path exists.
I work on series in collaboration and we exchange files via ftp. In general, for each series, we will create one parent folder, and then subfolders, one will contain mixing sessions (one folder for each episode) and one containing Exports (again, one folder for each episode).
So if the relative path is for example …/…/export/ep42/ it would save lots of time remapping each export job most of the time 6 per episode. (we just made 200 episodes of a series in 3 months, so it can add up pretty quickly).
