HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The MDB Data foler has been deleted.
How can I get this back?
It is not on a tape backup :(
However a backup of the virtaul Mdrive with all the mailboxes is backed up.

Needs resolving quickly.

Thanks

You're hosed.

In the future, backup the exchange databases and forget that the virtual M: drive even exists. Do not click on it. Do not scan it for viruses. Do not let your system do any routine tasks on it.

Managed to fix it
Dont ask me how but it is all working agian now.
I let the system create a new edb file. SO everyone had a new empty mail box then restored the M drive data from tape. Then copied the contents from the restore across to the new empty M drive. Seems to work.
But I have changed the backup now.
