Public Folders issue with Exchange 2007

[Tom84]

Recently one of our customers had a new Exchange server installed with Server 2008 SBS and Exchange 2007

During the installation we PST'd the public folders off and imported them into the new server (no problems there) however yesterday they had a problem where all be the very most recent entries had disappeared (I used the calendar entries as a focal point to work with) anyway I restored the EDB file from their backup ran a repair on the database and it mounted fine bringing back all their information....

HOWEVER

They've rang in again today saying all my hard work yesterday has been for nothing as again everything bar the most recent entries have gone missing

Is there something that I'm missing about Exchange 2007 that removed entries after a certain amount of time?

There are both storage and age limits that can be set or unset on items in Public Folders in Exchange 2007.

The folloing link has useful info on the subject: http://searchexchange.techtarget.com/generic/0,,sid43_gci1305167,00.html

Yeah found something similar after my original post, weird thing is no such option was selected

Anyway I've restored the folders back again and set the Age limit to it's maximum (something like 60 odd years)

Hopefully that will do the trick *crosses fingers*
