Recover selected item(s)

Recovery is used to re-generate the emails from the archive back into the original location.

This processing type can be used in the following cases:

• A folder structure has been deleted;
• One or more folders have been deleted;
• One or more emails from the folder(s) have been deleted

and the user needs to get back these already archived items from the archive.
With the recovery function the archived items can be put back into their original mailbox location. It can also create the folder if it was deleted from the mailbox’s folder structure. It is possible to recover any part of the structure:

• One or multiple mailbox folders;
• Recursive folder structure;
• One or more folder contents.

• If there is a shortcut for the recovered email in the mailbox folder – the email won’t be recovered;
• If the email is already present in the mailbox folder – the email won’t be recovered;
• If the email has been deleted from the mailbox folder – the email will be recovered.

Recovery of deleted mailbox folder “Calendar”

In this use case we will recover the deleted mailbox folder “Calendar“. We would not like to involve the subfolders, so we double click on this folder’s checkbox in the navigation pane. Then we click on the recovery toolbar button above the list view:

Folder “Calendar” will be put back into the mailbox after the task is completed.

Export and recovery actions (accessible from the toolbar buttons of Email Archive and File System Archive) that run/are currently running can be viewed and downloaded from the Tasks list. For more information about the Tasks List refer to section Tasks list.

Mark document(s) for delete
With this task you can mark/unmark emails to be later deleted from the archive by the Delete job. You can either way mark/unmark only the selected emails, or all emails from the current folder.

Select the desired action (mark or unmark) from the Operation dropdown list and then click Create.
