Dear all,

I have *.edb, *.GUID and *.log files as backup for some Storage Groups. Is there a way to list the mailboxes from these files alone and restore a specific mailbox to the exchange server? It will be very helpful if you tell me an API or someother way to restore the selected mailboxes only to the exchange server from the *.edb file and other files. I am aware of OnTrack PowerControls that they can do my requirements. But, is there a way to accomplish my requirement without having to purchase a third party tool? Can someone please help me...

Many thanks in advance,
Nesan Joseph R.

It is not possible to retrieve only a specific mailbox on e2k3 sp2. But you can still can achieve this by having a recovery storage group.

Restore the database to RSG, you can either merge the mailbox or
Convert the RSG to regular storage group and user ex-merge to pull the .pst out for a specific mailbox

Thanks for your response Vijay. I had a problem while restoring the *.edb, *.stm and *.log files to the Recovery Storage Group and have mentioned my problem in the following thread.
