It is a new SBS server with a new SBS license. &nbsp;However, I have to use my old disks to install Exchange. &nbsp;Would I be better off just installing Exchange on the new server and rebuilding the new server all together? I only have 11 pcs and 9 users. &nbsp;I did Exmerge all the old mailboxes, so I'm thinking I can just import the .pst files right?

The Exchange files were damaged and all the e-mail was lost. &nbsp;I basically had to reinstall Exchange and start from scratch on the new server. &nbsp;I first exported the clients local pst files and just Exmerged them back into exchange.

I'm somewhat new to Exchange. &nbsp;I completely destroyed my Exchange install on my production server at work. &nbsp;Now I have backed up the Exchsvr folder from my hard disk onto an external drive. &nbsp;Is it possible to migrate what is working (ie, Active Directory, DNS, Network Drives, Etc.) over to the new server and then resinstall Exchange and just bring over the old folder with the mailboxes????<br />
<br />
Please help!!!!

Reinstall Exchange with old data on new server?

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
