Time Machine, how do I restore individual emails?
Posted: Nov 26, 2007 7:16 PM
 

I would like to restore some emails i deleated but i have no idea how to do this. I don't seem to be able to open up the email backup to get at just the seperate emails. Should i restore the entire mail backup to lets say documents and then go get what i want?

Have the Mail.app active on your Desktop and then click the Dock's TM icon. This should bring up the TM browser with the Mail windows going back in time. Locate your missing Mail items and use Restore tab to recover them.
