Some doofus deleted all the mail box's on 3 of the servers (4 servers total)

After laughing a lot (till i cried) I got stuffed with trying to help fix the issue...

Now a simple restore should fix the issue only there is 1 server thats was not touched by Doofus and it has lots of very happy mail users running on it...

Now I can see why after a restore all the mail box's vanish after a few mins (because the good server knows they should be deleted)

But is there a way to make the good server forget that the mail box's were ever deleted - or a way to restore the doofus'd server so that the mail box's dont vanish...

Thanks in advance for any help
