I am going to ask the client if it the "2010122" could have been backed up on 
any other day. If not I will eliminate the PIT parameter.

regards

It depends on when the file was actually backed up, it could be on the
next day's backup.
You could eliminate the PIT parameter altogether.

Thanks,

But if I use the point of time date 12/21/10 will that still get me only
the string "2010122"? with the date 12/20/2010 because the client wants
the 12/20/10 date

regards

You quoted a wildcard, that is probably part of the problem.
Try nudging the Point In Time date ahead one day and do a restore -pick.

Question,

If I only wanted to restore files in a directory that contain the string
in their name "2010122 with the date 12/20/2010 is this correct?
        restore  "/calstovee/ppslogs/mxmstr/mail/*.2010122"
-pitdate=12/20/2010 -ina
and do I really need the quotes as the manual show because it's not
working

tsm> restore  "/calstovee/ppslogs/mxmstr/mail/*.2010122"
-pitdate=12/20/2010  -pick -ina

Haven't done a restore like this before, I am mainly concerned about the
string syntax as I am fairly sure the rest of the command is correct

fy.i - unable to use gui for this and I am trying to do more command
line stuff as someone said

Thanks
