find old emails

Hi Experts,
my boss asked me to find old emails from 2009.
I checked his pst files but without success.
I always have a monthly and a yearly backup.
Is there a way how to recover old sent items ?
We use symantec, how to recover old sent items to another temporary outlook account ?

I use Symantec backup 12.5 and Exchange Server 2007.
Yes I have the weekly monthly and yearly tapes.

Is it possible to restore the whole mailbox to another account ?
Without destroying the account of the user ?

I found out the problem is  y backed up exchnage files are from exchange 2003.
Now we use exchange 2007.
A restore is not possible anymore.
I have now running a old exchange 2003 server.
Do you have a recovery manual for it with symantec 12.5 ?

It seems my old exchange server is not online anymore.
When I open the system manager of my old exchange server 2003, and I go to the
EXCHANGE ADMINISTRATIVE GROUP, then I just see my new exchnage server 2007.

SO, how it is possible to restore mails to this server ?
I need to restore data from the time I had my exchange2003.
Last year I had a upgrade to exchange 2007.
All mailboxes are transfered to the actual exchange2007.

But now I need to restore mails and calender entries from 2003 to the new 2007 environment.
How I gonna do this ?
In my backup exec 12.5 I have also another problem.
My old exchange server 2003 had the name exchangeserver02.
The new exchange server has the name exchange02

When I now start a restore, and I select exchangeserver02, I cannot test the credentials.
This ends in an error. How to fix this ?

When I restore to any location the credential check has to be done.
The old servername is exchangeserver02 but it seems the backup always tries to check credentials to this server.
But it is now offline.
I don't know how to go on.

I can choose this name.
But for what is this check ?
Checks it if the server is available ?
