My hard drive crashed yesterday and the Apple Store tech was able to back up my User folder before they erased my hard drive and reinstalled the OS. On the back up copy of the User folder, I don't see a LIBRARY folder?! Would that have been a hidden folder? I can't find my Apple Mail Archive folders either. That's a bummer because I took a TON of notes on my laptop. Are these files definitely gone now?

Yes.

also, like me, if you need to find where the PHYSICAL location of the Notes on your Mac HD, this is the route:
Macintosh HD/USERS/"your name"/LIBRARY/MAIL/MAILBOXES/PW.mbox
and it won't look like a folder but it is.
click/hold and choose "Show Package Contents"
the notes will be in one of the folders in there, and end with .emlx
No, my Notes do not appear in Apple Mail. I'm pretty sure unless you click the box-with-arrow icon next to the trash icon and choose to send a note by email, your notes never get connected with Apple Mai.

They did 5 years ago.
