What is Mailbox Restore?

The Mailbox Restore functionality of Macrium Reflect Server Plus allows you to restore individual emails from a backup of Microsoft Exchange. This is useful if your backup contains some vital emails or attachments, but you don't want to have to restore the whole Exchange server in order to access them .

Mailbox Restore can restore emails, appointments, contacts, journal entries, notes and tasks. Whenever this knowledgebase article describes restoring "emails", any of these can be restored in the same way.
