Per the suggestion of somebody on this list, I use Exmerge (downloadable
from MS's website) to backup my Exchange server.  It saves a pst file
for each individual account and has rsync-like properties for restoring
-- for example it can restore new email messages only, if you want it to.

My Exchange server runs Exmerge daily, and then BackupPC backs up the
pst files.
