Hello All!

I administer PART TIME the server for my Brother and his small company.
Friday of this week, someone up and left the company and from my logs, I can
see they emptied their emails.

What can I do as administrator to get into that users account and see the
emails they deleted and possibly more. Any ideas? I have 2 days worth of
backups but I don't want to have to use them..

PLEASE HELP

Exchange Server 2005 (or the version that comes with SBS 2003).

I was able to get most of their email and appointments back that they
frantically deleted on the last day. Now I need to access their hard drive
and get the files that they think they deleted...

I am new and inexperienced at eing an admin and only do it part time. I
think I will now re-reoute all personal Storage to the server... anyway, that
is another forum..

Thanks!

log on using an account that is in the local administrators group and take
ownership.
