I backed up a virtual site using Virtualmin and attempted to restore this
site on another server and all the emails, except the ones put in folders
(those stored in the home directory) are gone. I deleted the site off the
server and now all the mail files that were on /var/spool/mail for that
domain are gone. I've even tried to restore that domain on the same server,
no luck. Am out of luck?

Maybe .. check your backup file to see if mailboxes got included. You can do
this with a command like :

tar tvzf /backup/yourdomain.tar.gz <http://yourdomain.tar.gz>   | grep
mailfiles

Let us know what that outputs..
