Hi Jennifer, Ah only Mail messages.... I think I remember when you were having problems with your old Mac freezes, that you were in Snow Leopard. If this is the case your mail now you have upgraded to Mountain Lion Mail is a different database to the SL Mail database, so most likely you will be unable to access any of the old SL emails through Time Machine.
Wait until the person who setup your new iMac is back from Holidays and he possibly will be able to manually locate the email message for you. Or he will be able to resend the message you mention below :-) Also some of your Mailboxes might need to do a Rebuild. Not much cooler than Perth down my way , probably one degree or so. It was nice when little Perez and I went for our 5KM walk this morning @ 5AM though. But we have just come home from delivering a late Christmas present to one of the family... And immediately we entered our house, I turned the Air Conditioner on!!
