Hi,

I am running Exchange 2003 on Server 2003. How can I backup/restore an
individual mailbox?

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks!

You would need 3rd party software such as Symantec Backup Exec to perform a
brick level backup of a mailbox. You could also use the EXMERGE utility to
export the contents of a mailbox to a PST file and reimport it.

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/174197 for information on using exmerge
in your environment.
