I did a clean install of Mountain Lion (this is the first time for doing a clean install of an operating system since my original purchase of my MacBoo Pro four years ago) and so far I've been able to recover all of my files, pictues, apps and music, thanks to iCloud and using Finder to access my archived Time Machine backup. But I'm stuck on how to recover the emails that I had saved to my Mac. I have recovered all of the email saved on my email server accounts, but not the ones that I had saved to a local folder in Mail. My problem is similar to "trouble me's", except Migration Assistant does see my archived backup on the drive attached to my Time Capsule. But it gets stuck on "Connecting." I left Migration Assistant running for hours, yet the status never changes. Like I stated above, I can mount and search the archived backup using Finder and copy and paste the files I want recovered. Any suggestions on what I need to do to recover the emails saved in Mail to a local folder?
