The problem is that my employer had no idea how bad their mail infrastructure (and everything else, for that matter) had gotten. They had no idea that their mail server was not being backed up. The problem is that my IT budget will not become effective until Jan 1. 04. I'm doing what I can to get by until the new year. As far as the brick backups, I am not a big supporter of this, but it was requested that I have the ability to restore individual mailboxes. After reading Ed "never restore" method, I'm a changed man!

Where did you hear that or am i missing something From: Eric Fretz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: Problems with Backup Exec 8.5 Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2003 07:35:21 -0600 I've inherited this IT environment and I can't spend any money until Jan. 5th. Oh, by the way, this exchange box as not been backed up since it was built 2.5 years ago! Brick backups are start because this box could tank at any moment. I'm purchasing Veritas BE 9 in January, but I cannot get it until then. I might have a trial copy of BE 9 and I can use until then, though.

Everytime I try to restore an individuals mailbox, the job copies 9088 bytes and then hangs. It never fails or gives an error message. My mail server is Exchange 5.5 standard running on a Windows 2000 Server (SP4) with Veritas Backup Exec v8.5.
