I think that your best shot is to...

1) Quit Emailer, move both your "current" Mail & mail index files to 
somewhere else safe. Always keep both of those together as a set. 

2) Drag in the same named files from your Feb 16th back up. 

3) Select all incoming messages that you want to save & "Redirect" them 
to yourself. 
Send. Perhaps someone has an applescript for this. 
Do NOT check your mail! 

4) Quit Emailer, move both your Mail & mail index files to somewhere 
else. These are the "Feb 16th BackUp files". Substitute your "current" 
Emailer mail & index files in & launch Emailer.

5) Check Mail. You ought to get all those messages back in. The dates 
will be wrong, but they will still be "from " the right people. At least 
the reply to will work right. 

Good Luck!!

Best,
