Hi Mark,

I've started to work on openchangemapirestore a while ago, but have
never pushed the code indeed. However the idea behind these drafts tool
is relatively simple. These are basic brick-level backup tools.

openchangemapidump: fetch-items and store all message properties within
a ldb file
openchangemapirestore: dump all message properties from ldb file and
push them to the Exchange server.

The point is that the development of these tools has been stopped while
waiting for ICS (Incremental Change Synchronization) related code (IDL +
libmapi) to be analyzed and pushed on trunk.

ICS is supposed to provide a much more reliable backup process than raw
MAPI-store dump using existing MAPI calls.

If restoring data from openchangemapidump is critical for you, I can
give it a look and push a preliminary draft - using the
openchangemapidump initial model. However you shouldn't expect too much
reliability from these tools at the current stage of development.

Let me know what you prefer.

Cheers,
Julien.
