I have an Exchange Recovery server setup to do just this. When a user loses mail or a mailbox is deleted, we use this server to recover the mailboxes, export to a PST etc. We use this server for disaster recovery but it also comes in handy when doing single mailbox restore. If you have the extra hardware I would suggest doing this for future issues. You have to set the server up exactly like your production server but in it's own forest. -----Original Message----- From: Kristoffersen Bjorn-Olaf [mailto:bok@xxxxxx] Sent: Monday, October 14, 2002 1:51 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] SV: Disappearing Mails ikke sensitiv Hi, Exchange version ? You propobly cant restore a single mailbox, unless you've got E2K and an explisitt storage group for this user. Any chance he's got a filter activated on his mailbox ?

I am thinking maybe his mails got deleted, only some mails are gone. How can I track what problem occurred? How can I restore his mail box for that day? I do regular/daily backups. Just his mail box because no one else has this problem. All help appreciated. With Kind Regards, Khan ____________________________ Faizal Khan MIS Manager Guyana Forestry Commission 1 Water Street, Kingston, Georgetown, GUYANA.
