Hello
My VPS provider messed up all my server.
After an unsuccessful recovery they are rolling back to 5 days ago.

In the mean time for sure, recovered and temporal working subscriptions have been working (mail, site...) . Sites are not relevant but yes mailing.

They are now rolling back and my question is if is there a way to selectively import mail because I have suscriptions that have been receiving mails during this days but I don't have restore the mails from the past so if I restore the current backup I'll have newer mails but no old.

In short way, I need to restore mails without overwriting, just merge.
 
Any file based backup/recovery procedure should "merge" the emails, as Plesk does use the MDIR format to store emails. (every email is a single file with an unique name)
