Thanks for that handy tip.  All the time I've read emails on this list I've
never seen this for some reason.  Worked like a charm.

If you are using deleted item retention you should be able to enable the
dumpsteralwayson registry value and recover them without a restore of the
server.

Subject: replay logs


I'm going to flaunt my ignorance of Exchange disaster recovery here.  I've
read bits and pieces and understand things in theory, but haven't done any
tests yet (time, time, time).  Anyway, here's a not-so-hypothetical example.

Say a user accidentally SHIFT+DELetes a lot of email in a folder.  What's
the best/easiest way to get this back?  Is there a way to replay all the
logs on the server and get the email back?  A full online backup occurs
every single night, but the important emails were sent after 8AM this
morning.  So, the logs have everything needed.  I was just wondering that if
there is a way to replay all the logs and get the emails back, a) how do you
do that and b) will it resend every email that people had sent before?

And by the way, I do have the disaster recovery white papers and I've read
them twice, just haven't done any hands-on stuff yet, so this is my chance I
guess.

Thanks,
Allen
