Time Machine onexternal hard drive does not include my mail
I accidentally deleted everything in my folders in my apple mail. I need those back,
there's nothing under users or library, or any applications, or anything that lists my mail.
. I have tried opening mail, clicking in box clicking on time machine icon on the menu bar. It doesn't say "enter time machine". It says "browse time machine back ups". I go to my last back up and there's nothing there under users under library under applications. I have gone down every thread as far as it will go, and there is no mail folder. I did not exclude it from back ups .
then I thought I would just pack up the whole library and maybe that would include it somehow, but it won't allow me to do that
i'm in a panic
