I DELETED a HUGE public folder-how do I recover it??

[eharlan]

I deleted a HUGE public folder at my company and I can not find it. It
has not shown up in my deleted items, and i can NOT believe it would
have permanently vanished forever. What do I do? This could be pretty
disasterous.

Unless it is on your exchange server, or you regularly back up your public
folders, it has been *permanently* deleted. There are some recovery services
that charge large amounts of money and claim to offer some relief.

do you know if recovered deleted was enabled on the server? if so you may be
able to recover it.
see this kb for instructions.

The computer on which the Exchange server is hosted doesn't get backed
up? Have you talked to the Exchange admin or IT dept. to see if they
have backups?
