How can I back up an exchange mail account?

Filed under: Windows Disaster Recovery — wayne @ 11:03 pm

I would like to back up an exchange system so that there is disaster recovery. I’m using Mail2Web Business Exchange, together with Windows XP & Outlook 2007.

I am currently using Outlook 2007, and copying the OST file doesn’t work.

Is there any other way of saving it as a pst?
Mail2Web can’t do anything apparantly.

Very interesting question, your system administrators should know how to run a backup utility with Exchange Server. It would backup your mail.

Other ways is that you can drag and drop the e-mail message(s) anywhere you want and it will create a file with the information backed up. That’s the sure fire way of doing it (it will take a while if you have a lot of e-mail).

Take care,
Chad
