Is there not a way to point the Restoration area to another location without taking the POA down and then restore a previous backup to the area and point it back? If the wphost.db is still locked after you point it to a new location, can't it be unlocked? You would think Novell would have a way to keep this restore are updated as needed, wouldn't you?
Can you explain how a second POA instance would be setup and what a user or administrator would need to do to restore mail?

I believe the official recommendation is to use a standby server for the restoration area, so as to prevent this. If you don't have spare hardware for this purpose, you could also create a second POA instance on the existing server.
