I agree, I ran into a 1018 error a while back that I tried every Q article
on. I ended up calling PSS and got it resolved in a few phone calls. Best
$245 I ever spent. Of course it ended up being some corrupt items in one of
my coworker's mailboxes, he's never going to live it down either ;)

Man, if you're getting 1018s on the defrag, then you probably have bigger
problems than ExMerge will solve.

Well, here's what happened. We noticed last week that the backups were
not
taking place. I manually kicked off a backup (we use Veritas Backup
Exec)
and noticed that it would fail at the same place as the scheduled one.
That
night I ran ESEUTIL to do an offline defrag and it stopped with err
-1018
JET_errReadVerifyFailure. Running ESEUTIL in repair mode was taking
longer
than "the powers that be" were comfortable with. A colleague of mine had
the
same error message come up a couple of years ago and when he contacted
PSS
they instructed him use EXMERGE to pull the data out, create a new
priv.edb
and the use EXMERGE to put the data back into the new priv.edb file. The
exact procedure is outlined in Q259688.

Exmerge wouldn't be the tool I'd use to recover from a
damaged IS, so I'm not sure what you've done. In any
case, there is a limit of 32K for rules, period. It
sounds like maybe yours are corrupt.
"Failed to get inbox" could mean just about anything.
It's a pretty generic message.
