A couple weeks ago, due to several issues, my hard drive was reset to factory specs, which means everything was wiped clean.<br /><br />I had to reinstall everything. Guess what; I would use the "Time Machine" to get emails all the way back to Sep 2011! (and everything else).<br /><br />I installed it in 2009 when I bought the iMac, so I guess it has a limit as to how far back it keeps the data, but if I can get emails from 2011, I'm sure the IRS can!Glenn E.
