Hi, As a sys-admin, I am often bugged by users who had mistakenly deleted some very important email, and could I recover it from the tape back-up. I try to explain to them that back-up is only run once per 24 hours and maybe their message arrived since the last run, and that tapes are there to recover disk crash, not user bad moves, it still eats up quite some amount of my time (and it is a stupid task). So I came up with a system whereby messages are duplicated on a second server and users can use a web page to browse that second server and recover emails. Kust in case someone maybe interested, the system is explained there: http://www.cs.ait.ac.th/laboratory/email/mailback.shtml Bests, Olivier
