Hi all,

I've got a problem where my backups aren't successfully going through due to some hidden email in users’ mailboxes.
I can't see these messages in Outlook2000 or OWA, but I can see them in the M: drive.

How do I get rid of them? Short of running an exmerge and recreating the mailbox?

This seems to be a common problem.

Cheers for any assistance! :)
 
I'm pretty confident they aren't deleted emails as they are sitting in the inbox of the users folder. Plus my backup says they are in there as well and it can't back them up because they seem to be corrupted...

*Sigh*

Looks like I will have to run an exmerg :(
