Re: [MlMt] Selectively Restore Account?
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.

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.

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. -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
