Okay, well perhaps I am mis-informed then. If I had backed up the M drive to a tape, then I selected to restore the Public Folders\Sellafield Calendar\*.EML to a folder on my PC. Then I recreated the Sellafield Calendar public folder manually, and dragged all the EML files from my PC into the Sellafield Calendar via Outlook.
That would destroy all my users mailboxes? Or should I say there is a small risk of this happening? If that is the case, I don't know if it is or isn't, then I shall refrain from using it at all :o -----Original Message----- From: John Matteson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 June 2003 17:37 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Backing up the M Drive Only if you enjoy being the center of attention of a mob of angry users bent on causing you pain, lots and lots of pain for destroying their mailboxes. However, if you insist on this masochistic path, jab yourself in the eye with a red-hot fireplace poker and you will experience the same sort of pain, but your mailbox data will remain intact.
