Do you mean an exchange mailbox?

If so, as far as I know, exchange stores all mailboxes in some huge spool file thing, which is pretty much impenetrable...

There is an exchange plugin for backup exec that might make this easier... Aplogies if you're already using this and I'm talking crap!

Erm.....

1) Have you got the Exchange Agent installed on the target MEXCH sever?

2) Has the BackupExec service account got approproate access? Needs to be a member of Exchange Admins (off the top of my head)

If you've got 1) installed ok, and 2) is correct, you should be able to click on the server, expand it and you'll see a yellow expandable box that says "Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes". Expand that, make your selections, away you go.
