        Hi there

        I couldn't help notice'ing that you have a quite big Exchange
database,  we
        are currently moving our Exchange backups to ADSM backup, and we
keep
        wondering if one really has to restore the whole database to recover
one
        mailbox, or even one item.  I know this is a limitation in Exchange,
but
        isn't there a way around it?  For example, some dopehead delete's
his
        mailbox, would you restore 100GB of data?


        best regards
