How to Restore Microsoft Exchange Mail

Important! To restore Microsoft Exchange email, it is suggested to use the Exchange Granular Restore utility, instead of the Arcserve UDP Restore user interface or the following procedure: How to Restore Microsoft Exchange Mail.

Each time Arcserve UDP performs a successful backup, a point-in-time snapshot image of your backup is created (recovery point). This collection of recovery points allows you to locate and specify exactly which backup image you want to restore. If at some later time, you suspect any of the backed up information is missing, corrupted, or not reliable, you can then locate and restore from a previous known good version. For Microsoft Exchange Mail you can then browse these recovery points to locate the individual objects (mailboxes, mailbox folders, or mail) that you want to restore.
