I accidentally modified a user's AD properties, Exchange General, Delivery Options, Forwarding address, to ONLY forward to and NOT to also "Deliver messages to both Forwarding address and mailbox". So for a preiod of time mail never reached the user's inbox but was only forwarded out to another account. Is there any way to get this stuff back? It doesn't seem to be available using the Outlook recover deleted items tool. I suspect that it is intercepted even before it reaches the IS but I really don't know how this works under the hood. I would think that the data should exist in the logs but is there any reasonable way to get this stuff back? Would Exmerge be able to see this?

nope...you'd have to forward it back to that mailbox from the address it was all forwarded to... -- Susan Conkey [MVP] "Jonathan Huber" wrote in message news:9041C2B9-3AAC-4151-B1E8-9232E82784FF@microsoft.com... >I accidentally modified a user's AD properties, Exchange General, Delivery > Options, Forwarding address, to ONLY forward to and NOT to also "Deliver > messages to both Forwarding address and mailbox".
