Shiminy. Dollars to Donuts they either werent backing up every night or they had bad tapes and had to restore from an older good copy, and in the process they were unable to restore all the mail. -----Original Message----- From: Corgiat, Rick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2002 1:17 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Looking for Advice... >From what I understand from corporate, they were backing up nightly but >the backup/restore failed. I have no say whatsoever in what corporate does. My servers are backed up every night and I test backup tapes at random. My responsibilities are with the users in my division, and we all have to rely on corporate for email...

I think rather than going that route you should look at your backup procedures. Why isn't the server being backed up daily?

OK, first I have to say that I'm not an exchange expert. I'm not the exchange admin for our company so I am quite the newbie here. Here's the story: Last week our one and only exchange server crashed and we were without email for most of the week. All clients were setup to look at the server for email, no local pst files. So, when the server went down, all inbox, sent items, calendar, contacts, etc were gone. The admin at corporate, in another state, rebuilt the server (I think) but was not able to restore every one's mail back to pre-crash status. We were missing attachments, some email... When my remote users dialed in to get new mail, they synced with a nearly empty server and poof, no more old/saved mail. We were able to restore most of our saved mail but there is a lot gone and we accept that. What I would like to learn is how can I set up our Outlook clients so that if our email server crashes again, we don't lose all of our saved mail and related stuff. Most Outlook clients are Outllok 2000 with some XP sprinkled in for good measure.
