Thanks I will do that.
It looks like I have to import messages one mailbox at a time (because I
have to choose which mailbox on import). I have a lot of mailboxes on
this account.
Is there any way to import them all at once?
RE: my IMAP provider
I have used them for decades without problem but this kind of failure is
a deal killer.
Much Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [MlMt] Selectively Restore Account?
My regular IMAP mail provider has had a catastrophic hardware failure.
Unfortunately, before it went down completely it replaced all my mail
with mail from 2013. I am hoping that they have a good backup that
will
restore everything when the hardware is replaced. However, in the
interim I need access to my mail.
I have everything backed up but am uncertain how to selectively
restore
that one account. I think the mail would be found at:
~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Messages/IMAP/account
However, I don't think I can just replace the existing directory with
the one from backup. How do I go about this?
Thanks,
Mark

You need to use “File ▸ Import Messages...” to get the emails
into
the account again. MailMate can then upload the emails to the server.
If
you have some overlap then “Edit ▸ Select Duplicates” might be
helpful. It selects duplicates and not the originals (the originals
are
assumed to be the messages first seen by MailMate). It only looks at
`Message-ID` and size, but that should be good enough for most
purposes.
You might also want to consider switching IMAP provider.
