Had to reset Mail & rebuild mailboxes. Now all the saved messages I had have disappeared. Still have the junk mail and deleted mail. How can I regain the lost messages?
Mac Pro, OS X Mountain Lion, 2x2.8 Quad intel
I assume you have no Time Machine or similar backup from which to restore them.
Check for the presence of a folder named "Recovered Items" under "On My Mac".
No, backup for mail - Will be from now on.
No nothing in the recovered items file. Checked all through and on the server but nothing found.
If your email account is IMAP, and the provider has a webmail interface, log in using that service. Search all its folders including deleted items. That's all I have to suggest for now.
Thanks for your response, but looks like the messages are gone for good.
I think so. I wasn't terribly optimistic about recovering them 😟
Need to recover saved messages in Mail lost after reset.
