Is there a way to create a brick level backup for Exchage 5.5. I have lost several e-mail's and I know that my backup does back up exchange but I can't do a restore for just 1 mailbox. Is this possible?

Thx

Ben

This is a capability that must be built into the software program you are using.

If your backup software doesn't support it, you are out of luck unless you invest in software that will.

Most enterprise-level backup solutions (such as CA BrightStor or Veritas Backup Exec) will support this capability.

Just a followup to the previous answer Ben.

If you do a brick level backup make sure you also do a full backup as well. I suggest a good rotation scheme. The reason for this is if you ever have a problem with your Exchange server and need to restore it. MS (if called) will not support you with brick level backups.
