Hi Chris, I'm not sure what version of Mac OS X you have (10.2, 10.3, 10.4, etc). In 10.4, if you have backed up ~/Library/Mail, if should be possible to import as per Ronni's instructions or in fact just copy the whole ~/Library/Mail folder back in place (provided you have set up your Mail Accounts or copied back ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist). The latter has worked for me in the past (quick, simple, effective), but of course I don't know about your individual circumstances.
