I was trying to delete one junk email, but somehow managed to delete the entire junk mail folder. It is not appearing on my mac or my iPhone. Since I do sometimes get legitimate emails in my junk folder, I really need to have it restored so those emails aren't in limbo somewhere. Please help!!
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.4
If you have a TM backup you may be able to retrieve the junk folder as follows:
To restore mailbox:
Open Finder
Click “GO” in top menu bar then click option key
Click on Library
Open mail folder
Open V9 or V10 (or similar) folder
Then find the folders labeled with cryptic titles (at this point you could open TM if you want to go back in time)
Look down through those folders to find a mailbox (note: there may be more than one with same label).
If it contains email you want you can copy the entire folder to your desktop
Go back into mail and import that folder from your desktop

Hi,
Try to see in garbage can of Mail.app if it still in there.
I accidentally erased my junk mail folder.
