Hi guys, I have a small business server (all apps in one box). Anyways i need to recover 1 mailbox and 2 emails from another mailbox on a NT backup files I have keep last year. I have followed this document from MS but i have it someone long and also a bit more too much information for me to disgest at this point when I have to get the emails out to the users. I really need some help here. URL: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/thankyou.aspx?familyId=df144af6-bee5-4b35-866a-557e25fe2ba1&displayLang=en# I got to this part so far: 1. Creating the recovery restore group under System Manager 2. Move the restore database to D:\program files\exchsrvr\recovery restore group\ (edb and stm files) 3. Created the account for the Exmerge process and add appropriate rights to it What I need to know are the following: 1. can i mount the restore group while the production store is mounted? 2. Do i have to run a repair against the restore file (priv1.edb) before mounted the restore group? I've try running the "Eseutil.exe /p d:/program files/exchsrvr/recovery storage group/priv1.edb" to do the repair on the restored database but i kept getting an syntax error but I have try all different variations but NONE worked. Can anybody point out what I am doing wrong here? Thank you, Helen
