Hi, The Time Machine backup actually backs up everything on your Mac unless it's configured otherwise. So, if your Mac was to die today, you could grab a new one, and restore from those backups and your Mac would be, for the most part, exactly the same as it was before including all eMail, browser history, network settings and data. If you start at your next location with a brand new Mac, then it is simple to transfer everything over. The difficulty would be if your eMails and such from the old employer are on an Exchange server or via iMap. In both these cases, the eMails are normally stored on their servers, thus if they revoke your access to their servers, you may no longer have access to the eMails. There are ways around this if you export the messages ahead of time, so that you have permanent access to them.
Sorry, not totally specific, but it's difficult when considering how some organizations secure their IT. Later...

I have a lot of emails on my mac in folders that I want to keep and take with me to my new job. My mac computer belongs to work. If I take the back up disk and use it in a new mac, will the emails be there? Thanks Nancy -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
