If I perform this from the date before the crash, will it ADD to the mailbox, or roll back to the date before the crash and the user will lose all recent messages?

Hi, <br />
<br />
One of my exchange databases crashed. I have manged to restore from the last full back up and the store is mounted, happy days.<br />
<br />
However, there is now a gap in the users messages.<br />
<br />
I have daily backups, but in backupexec they only appear as log files.<br />
<br />
Can i restore to this point in time by restoring the log files?

restore messages from an incremental backup

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
