I cannot access my email mailboxes that were there before I downloaded Mountain Lion. I am so afraid that they are lost. Please help.

What kind of email account do you have? Gmail? Yahoo? – woz Aug 2 '12 at 12:13

Quite a bit more information is needed, email account, setup (IMAP or POP), etc. – jmlumpkin Aug 2 '12 at 12:41

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

On the left, under MAILBOXES, you'll see Inbox, Drafts, Junk and Trash. Then there's ON MY MAC. Mouse over that heading and slightly to the right, "Show" will appear. Click on that and all your old mailboxes will be revealed.
