/Home/Library/Mail/ contain all the Mail data and mailboxes.


Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder


Pick one of the following methods:


A. This method will make the folder visible permanently. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and paste the following at the command prompt:


chflags nohidden ~/Library


Press RETURN.


B. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.


C. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:


~/Library


Press the Go button.
