Some of our users accidentally deleted public folders that they then needed back. I used the Recover Deleted Items wizard to recover these folders (XADM: How to Recover Items That Do Not Touch the Deleted Items Folder). This is a very useful tool; however, it doesn't always work.

E DIRECTORY | Ask Scott Schnoll Dear Scott: My company wants to deploy an Active Directory type environment. Would you recommend Active Directory as a total solution, or would it be better to run Active Directory in conjunction with an E Directory? Would that scenario be a total/complete solution?

And will Exchange Services also integrate with an E Directory? >> CLICK here for Scott Schnoll's expert response: http://searchwin2000.techtarget.com/ateQuestionNResponse/0,289625,sid1_cid566987_tax285117,00.html?track=NL-123 Want more tips like this one?
