1 months ago my server with SBS 2008 died, but I was able to recover the entire content of the damaged HD with the help of a data recovery company. I’ve newly installed the server (and I have the copy of the 'crashed files' on an external HD). There is only 1 client with Outlook 2007 which had all rules stored on it. Since I've lost all files on that PC as well (but I have an old backup.pst and outlook.ost file) I was wondering if there is a way to dig out the rules I've had either on those .pst or .ost files or on the server. I don’t have any .rwz file.

I don?t have any .rwz file. If the rules were all "client-side" rules then there were only "deferred action" rules stored in the mailbox on the server. The rest were, I think, in the local profile. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

Rich, thanks for your reply. Could you tell me exactly where to look at and what files I should search (for both possibilities)? Best regards, Sven

The profile is in the registry. If you don't have a backup of the client machine you don't have a copy of the rules. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
