You said you are 2008 R2, are you at forest functional level 2008 R2...if so do you have the recycle bin enabled?<br />
<br />
If not then do you have backups, &nbsp;you can do an authoritative restore of that user.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

If not then do you have backups,  you can do an authoritative restore of that user.

Dear All . <br />
<br />
active directory user has been deleted by mistake on win 2008 r2 , his mailbox also deleted on exchange 2010 sp1 , now i need to recover this user , i recreate the user on active directory , then user got logged on fine then i note his mailbox also not found (does this considered a soft delete - disconnected mailbox ? so i can reconnect it later ? ) .<br />
<br />
Now i prefered to create a new mailbox for that user and recover that mailbox from my latest recovery DB , when i use the shell to recover using this command &nbsp;&quot; Restore-Mailbox xxx -RecoveryDatabase RecoveryDB &quot;&nbsp;, it says Mailbox &quot;3ce26125-f9a5-4f02-bbf0-9<wbr />82e6a6ffc2<wbr />d&quot; doesn't exist on database &quot;RecoveryDB&quot;. even am sure that user has been backed up on that DB &nbsp;, HOW CAN I RECOVR THAT USERNAME or even that MAILBOX ? <br />
<br />
thanks in advance
