I just tested Bacula with Windows server 2003 and Exchange 2007 - backup works 
OK, although I left VSS on in the fileset. I managed to do one successful 
restore (from full+incr) backup, but since then all the restores have failed - 
sometimes bacula-fd dying, sometimes just getting "Error: HrESERestoreComplete 
failed with error 0xc7ff1004 - Unknown error" from FD. Could the error be 
caused by VSS?
