My settings on my virus scanner got reset, so it scanned my information store and removed my .stm of my mailbox store. That file is no longer on my system is there any way to recreate it?

Thanks,
Greg

Are both mailstores mounted ? If yes you could exmerge users from one of the stores to .PST files and then merge them into the other store.

If it isn't possible to mount the most recent mailstore, and you would like to extract information from it anyway, you can extract data directly from the .edb file (yes while it's unmounted! [Eek!]
