Title: RE: Is it possible to open the edb file and recover a users email ?

That's nice. But keep in mind that some of the folks on this list either wrote or edited the books your 50+ MCSE's used to pass their tests. And sometimes they have to call PSS.

You don't think I don't know that!

I used to work for the Henry J. Krapper Company, and when we needed outside
help, they gave us a pencil and told us to go into the bathroom and 'work it
out.'

All kidding aside, the attitude at work is that we have about 50+ MCSE's
working for us in various areas of the company. If on of my staff or I can't
fix it, someone in our company should be able to.

Wow...someone has issues.....
Knowing where and when to get expert advice is just another tool (and a very
important one) in any knowledgable admin's toolbox.

In a high tech company, calling tech support is considered a sign of not
knowing your job.

Most of us use them on a per call basis.

A very pricey acronym. They wanted $120K a year from us to start. That's a
lot for a 200 person company.

Just another acronym.

I would highly advise you to call PSS. If anyone can fix this, they can. If
your execs email is as important as they think it is, they will be willing
to fork over the $245

Seriously, Call them

the backups had an unfortunete accident. Long story..
I just heard about Exmerge and am reading about it right now...

Will it make a difference that the old server is pointing the home
mailserver to the new one?

Restore from an old backup to a restore server, Exmerge the data out to a
PST?

Heh sorry.. I've posted this a few times and never got a response.. Here
goes again. :)

"I was setting up a new Exchange server to replace our old one.... During
this adventure we tried to move the mailboxes over with changing the home
server in each users advanced properties. It kept giving me a MAPI error..
This was late night and we just deicided we would make everyones new email
boxes on the server by hand.

I've been logging on to the old server as each user to copy their emails
from the old server to a personal folder and then back to the new email
server.. Unfortunetly on the old server some peoples properities in their
Advanced tab has their home server set to the new one. I tried to set it
back but keep getting a MAPI error. I just want to log into the old server
and recover a handfull of peoples contacts/emails/calanders ect.

Old server - NT 4.0 sp6 exchange 5.5 sp3
new server - nt 4.0 sp6 exchange 5.5 sp 4"

It's frustrating.. The old server has their home server set to the new one,
but it never moved over the actualy email/calanders. I'm hoping they are
not lost forever.. Some people would not like that. Thanx for all the help.

Slow down....
Start at the beginning. What is happening and what caused this?

Is this possible? I'm desperate.. The higher ups want their email and our
old server has them pointing to the new server and I can't get into the old
server under some profiles....
