Recovery Exchange 2000 Public folders?!?!

[gicio]

Hi!

We migrate 2 weeks ago to win 2003 and exchange 2003.

we make an image of the old win 2000 server + exchange 2000.

with that migration we forgot to backup our Public Folder from exchange (the public folder include
few importanc Contacts (200 .vcf) files).

I can browse the image from the old exchange.

I find out that the public folders are stored in this both files:

pub1.edb
pub1.stm

Now the question: How I can recovery the complete Public folder???


regards,

You'll need a professional product to do this. that or you'll have to purchase an exchange book that covers this process.. I tried locating one for free but it was impossible.
