Exchange 2010 trust relationship;after rejoining mail missing for users

Today morning we are not able to login to exchange server 2010.

it shows the following message : 

"The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed"

exchange server is running in vmware VM. Its single server with CAS, Hub and mailbox roles.

There were some snapshot remaining that took before upgrading to SP3. vmware was showing it required consolidation message.

So I removed snapshot and did consolidation.

After that I did Reset account from active directory for exchange server and then restart server and login to server with  local administrative account.

I then removed exchange server from domain , restarted the exchange VM and then join to our domain back and restarted again. In this step I didnt stop any of the exchange server  services. i didnt notice that step.

Also  it showed some network card issue while joining domain. and But it joined.

Every thing was ok. There was no issues for server. But users started complaining that their mails are missing for last one month(april 8 to may 12 2015). Only mails missed during these period for the users. I dont know why it happened. How can i recover all these missing emails. 

We have veeam backup for exchange server. but to recover only a portion of emails  for these users one by one is really a tedious tasks.

one of the user completely lost his mailbox. 

I dont know whether i need to restore the whole VM or some other steps to get the mail back.

 Please help me the reason for the cause and how to recover mails for users

Hi,

Basic on your post, I understand that almost one month messages are missing after remove Exchange server from domain then re-join, also cannot login Exchange server.
If I misunderstand you concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.

How about the OWA?
Please try to run Setup /m:RecoverServer to rebuilds an Exchange server with the same name by using the settings and other information stored in Active Directory.
More details about Recover an Exchange Server, for your reference: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876880(v=exchg.141).aspx

Thanks

When I checked i found that it all happened after SP3 upgrade it seems.

Not very sure. But thats what i feel. I upgrade to SP3 one month before. And it worked all these days without any issue.

OWA the result is same. both outlook and OWA result is same.

I only want to recover mails  for last one month. There are mails missing from both inbox and user created folders for last one month(april 8 to may 12 2015).
