HI, i moved mailboxes (running exchange 2007 sp2) to another exchange mailbox server 2007 sp3. but during this process 4 mailboxes failed first time and also deleted 2 years of emails from users mailbox. i have old server and has database yet there. is it possible to get mails from old database ?

Hi, I am not sure that you can get it from old server database but if you have any backup then you can recover it quite easily, just make a recovery storage group & mount the the backup database & run export-pst for the desired user, do let us know if this didn't help or more info is required.Ripu Daman Mina | MCSE 2003 & MCSA Messaging

If RSG doesn't work out well for you check out Lucid8's DigiScope http://www.lucid8.com/product/digiscope.asp since it can open an offline EDB and allow you to Browse, View, Export mailboxes or items to PST, MSG & XML or recover the data directly to any Production Exchange server.Troy Werelius www.Lucid8.com

You can try this for RSG -> http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997694(EXCHG.80).aspx

Also, please upgrade all exchange servers into the same service pack. Inconsistent version can cause potential issue on the serversJames Luo TechNet Subscriber Support (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/ms788697.aspx) If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com
