Better approach to download the email is to configure it in a email client, and then taking a backup of the same.
Eg: configure the email in your outlook, and then download a backup of the same in a pst format.
now you can restore the same via outlook by importing the pst file.

You can download the mails using command line or FTP. Or simple way is, configure the email account in mail client, download the all emails on your local system.
Else you can download the emails by configuring them using POP3.
Most of the time, only emails can't be restored so best is to configure the email account and download them.

You can not backup your emails using ftp. If you want to backup your mails then you have to download the mails using pop3. There is no other way you can download your mails.

Aren't they just files in /mail/[email-addr] ?
So just download them using an FTP client.
