How to search exchange 2007 mailbox
A user is having issues with emails not showing in the sent items. I have checked on their machine and all seems to be as it should be. The emails are from September 2010, so the exchange logs don't go back that far to search.
Is there another way to search the exchange database to see these emails? At the moment the only reason I can see for missing emails is they have accidentally deleted them? Just need to double check on the server.
We are running SBS 2008 with Exchange 2007. We also set up outlook to use cached mode.

We've got 30 day deleted item retention. So would have gone from their too. Done full search of their mailbox too. Its items from specific date and email address.

It depends on when they were deleted from the deleted folder. Worth a look.

Excellent news and thanks for the points
Also, users have a way of draggint stuff into other folders in there mailbox, so check that they are not lurking in a sub folder or adjacent folder.
