Dianeoforegon gave this advice for restoring emails from Time Machine:

RESTORE YOUR IDENTITY FROM A TIME MACHINE BACKUP:

1) Click the Time Machine icon in the Dock or open it from the Applications folder.

2) Use the arrows and the timeline along the right edge of your screen to browse through the Time Machine backups. When you find the Main Identity file, select it, and then click Restore. Select to save on the Desktop.

3) Rename Main Identity on Desktop to "Restored Main Identity".

4) Drag "Restored Main Identity" to the Office 2011 Identities folder.

 ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/

5) Using Database Utility select "Restored Main Identity". Set as default then select to rebuild.

Before I try this I'd like to be clear. Do I find the Main Identity file in Documents>Microsoft User Data>Office 2011 Identities? My Office 2011 folder has a large number of identities and many Main identities. The one that comes up highlighted is from October 2013 and is not the latest modified. How do I choose the correct identity?

Second, when restored (as above) will the identity database contain ALL the emails that were in Outlook on the computer last Sunday June 28, the last known correct date before the crash?

Thanks for help.
