Hi,

 

Is there a simple way to browse/recover mailbox items from a specific incremental backup (exchange DB classic)?

I do not think so, could not find anything,  but my customer is facing the issue that he needs to browse multiple pages (>100) searching for a specific item.

There are advanced plan to migrate, but this does not solve the challenge the facing right now.

 

Thanks,
Danny

Hi @Danny 

Exchange database backup does not index the items like a mailbox backup, so it's limited in that regard. 

In that case it might be just as easy to restore the mailbox to a PST file then open the PST files and search within outlook for your specific item.

Thank you Scott for confirming.
