I am trying to follow this (lie) document:

I am trying to get an RSG to work and restore a deleted mailbox (same user account) where the retention time has passed and the mailbox is no longer in the dumpster. So i created an RSG using the Disaster Toolbox and was able to use backup exec to restore the data to the RSG.
However, every time i try to recover the mailbox (user name "Roberts lab") the process fails with mailbox not found, then if i recreate the mailbox and try to recover it i get error "mailbox "guid number"" cannot be found. SO i am burned either way.
This cant be that hard, what am i missing? All i want to do is recover the mailbox from an RSG to a newly created mailbox (Same user account).
