Subject: Missing emails after an archive - Outlook 2003

 

We had tech use the Manual Archiving feature of Outlook 2003 to create a
series of PSTs of an oversized mailbox in preparation of moving the
contents of the mailbox to a new domain.  (Two companies with SBS have
merged and going to use just one server.)  Unfortunately they were a
little overzealous and also used the feature to make the PST of the
remaining information in the inbox that was to be transferred to the new
server.  Of course all of the information that is supposed to be in the
exchange store is now in the last archive PST.  All except the last 3
weeks of email in the Inbox.

 

Of course we're talking about an inbox with over 10K items in it, but
for some reason the latest three weeks of information in the folder
known as Inbox is gone, and unfortunately the server in question
overwrites it's backups every night so I don't even have a working
backup to do a restore from.  I tried doing an Ex-Merge on the off
chance that information may just show up, but that didn't help.

 

Is there anybody who knows where this data might be, or do I just call
it "Lost"?
