Yes, I have heard rumors that virus is starting to regain strength and go
around again. I personally have seen a couple clients lately that have shown
signs of being infected with that virus.
So sad.

Hmmmm..... Sounds suspiciously like PEBKAC (on the user's part).

Nah, not really because after I did the restore from my brick backup, all
the email visibly populated in the Inbox :-( But a good thought though! :-)

Could it be something as simple as a view set on the user's inbox?

No, it happened to a live user's Inbox, not a deleted user. Strangely
enough, it only affected messages that existed at the root of the Inbox, not
any of the messages in any of the manually created folders in Outlook. The
only reason I thought it might be related to the backup is because as soon
as the Incremental backup was done, the user I was referring to popped her
head in my office to say all of her email "disappeared". It just seemed
like too much of a coincidence. PLUS, I don't have any mailbox manager
rules set up on the server to clear anything out.
Well, thanks for your thoughts anyway! :-)

It doesn't matter what I was speaking of. It matters what the OP was
talking about. He said "user's inbox" and I was addressing that without
any special interpretation.

Hello Carl,
are you speaking about a mailbox that you deleted but which stay on exchange
until it's backed up ?
I think exchange will purge it!
cheers,

So unless there is some other problem going on, there should be a 0.00000%
chance of "users inbox being wiped out" due to running a backup.

Sensitivity: Private
Hey Guys!
Let's say you do Incremental backups at few points during the day of the
Exchange database. Now we know that the Incremental backups commit and
flush the log files. Is there a possibility of a users inbox being wiped
out as a result of that backup being done?? Any input here is appreciated!!
:-) Thanks!!
Rich
