This guide outlines the process to perform domain restorations within WHM via the Acronis plugin.
To begin, visit the cPanel ‘Tools’ page for your relevant site or domain, where you will find ‘Acronis Backup’ highlighted as per below.
Click on “Acronis Backup”:

Once the “Mailboxes” section is loaded you can select whichever mailbox you would like to either “Recover” or “Download”. Once you have selected your mailbox click “Recover”:
After you select Recover, a dialogue box will appear with additional options. This is providing you with an option to delete any emails that were created after the backup was taken.

The status bar will change when the operation is completed to “Succeeded”:
