Stop the IMS, 
delete the queue.* files from the imcdata directory,
Copy the files from imcdata\in\archive back to imcdata\in
Start the IMS.

It's going to be a little tougher to get back the outbound messages though.

Subject: Archived Message Recovery tool?


We had a Server Crash (yes, yes, It was my fault) and we were only able to
recover to the last week's backup meaning that a week's worth of SMTP
messages are not in the Store. Given that I do have an archive of all of the
inbound and outbound messages that went through the IMC for that period, is
there a tool that can strip off the headers that Exchange puts on these
messages so that they can be resent to the mailboxes on the server?
