I dont rely on individual mailbox backups for the server, only just in case a message or folder needs to be restored instead of rebuilding the whole server! -----Original Message----- From: Missy Koslosky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Fri 5/31/2002 12:15 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Cc: Subject: Re: Corrupt Email in Exchange 2000 This isn't corrupt information. It's crappy backup methodology. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Armstrong" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "MS-Exchange Admin Issues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 11:58 AM Subject: Corrupt Email in Exchange 2000 Hello All, I am having an interesting problem with Exchange 2000 & BackupExec 8.6. Over the past few weeks, I have been getting errors within BackupExec8.6 when it backs up indivdual mailboxes in Exchange 2000. There are two mailboxes where it finds messages that it can't access so therefore it skips it. One of the messages is as follows: Unable to open the item Howard Perl [howardp]?Top of Information Store?Inbox?read?oldham?LEXINGTON PO#57016699 - skipped. Access denied to file ?Howard Perl [howardp]?Top of Information Store?Inbox?read?oldham?LEXINGTON PO#57016699. This happens on a dozen or so emails within two mailboxes but none of the others. Both of these mailboxes belong to users of RIM Blackberry's. This is the only thing that I can see that can be causing the problem. Anyway, when I got into the mailbox and drill down to the exact message that it is skiiping, I can't even open it within Outlook (this is both as the user and as Administrator). The first time to problem came up, I just deleted the messages that Outlook said couldn't access or was corrupt and the problem went away for a few days but now its back. I search on Technet for corrupt messages and find nothing but articles on corrupt stores and mta, etc. Has anybody seen this happen before and found a solution? I called Veritas tech Support and the basically say that if outlook can't open the message then it has to do with Exchange2k and not backupexec. The Exchange server is running W2KSP2 and E2KSP2, it is also running Trend Scanmail and Norton AntiVirus Corp Edition. BackupExec is on another server and the remote agent is installed on the mail server. Any ideas?!?!? .+ A z[ jo ˅z List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
