What you are missing, Kevan is a recovery server.  Hopefully the one you
periodically test your restores on.

            <michèle>
                you *do* test your backups by doing regular restores,
right?

Using Deleted Items Retention is OK for recovering individual messages
but what happens if the whole Mailbox is Corrupt.
If you have not Backed Up individual Mailboxes and you need to recover
One individuals Mail Box by restoring the whole of Exchange, then
everyone would lose their mail up to the last Back Up.

If I am missing something here please correct me.

We also use BackUp Exec and have had no problems with it so far,

Ok, I've looked at this and am trying to implement. But one thing has me
puzzled, I have enabled the deleted item retention set for 30 days as
you recommend but when I go into OutLook and try to recover an item, the
option is grayed out. Is the action only avail on the server?

Full backups Daily.
Backup the IS and DS
Do Not Backup Individual Mailboxes

Implement 30 day Deleted Items Retention in Exchange. You will never
need to restore again.

As for OFM, People say to stay away. I have personally seen it running
in 8.5 on an Exchange server daily and it worked great, though you were
essentially backing up everything twice. But I believe the rule of thumb
is don't use it.

Hello,
For those of you that use Veritas Backup Exec to backup the Exchange
server, what type of back up jobs do you run? Daily Differentials and
Full every Friday. DO you backup the IS and the individual mailboxes
every evening or just the IS. I think we here have been backing up the
individal mailboxes every day as well since we have had numerous
problems with users accidentally deleting stuff and needing it restored.

Also do most of you utilize the Open File option in veritas as you may
have users in email while it is being backed up?
I just wanted to get an idea of what type of backup strategy is used by
others.
Thanks,
