Default Recovering emails from mailbox that was deleted months ago

In ,
MB typed:
I have been asked to find emails in a mailbox that hasn't been used
in 15 months. They are not on any backups since we don't keep them
for more than a year.

The user hasn't logged on to the pc since the mailbox was deleted and
the ad account was deleted (obviously). we run Outlook in cached mode
here so I'm wondering if this is possible. Can I get the password
that the user was using (if the remember), unhook the pc from the
network and log on using stored credentials in windows xp and pull up
outlook to get the local copy of the mailbox to come up. Then grab
the messages I need from there?
any ideas?

thanks,
Matt


Sure, you can try that.
