How do I restore a deleted Exchange 2007 user? or A funny thing happened on the way to a reconnect?

Published June 2nd, 2008 in Exchange 2007. 0 Comments

This post is the result of an experience one of my clients had.  I hope it helps other Exchange 2007 SP1 users.

Here is the scenario, a loyal administrator somewhere deletes Robert Smith when they meant to delete Roberta Smith.  It could also be that someone was confused by the ‘newspeak’ in the Exchange Management Console (EMC) and did not realize that ‘Remove’ equates to ‘Delete User’ not to ‘Remove Exchange Attributes’ under ‘Exchange Tasks…’ in the 2000/2003 Exchange extended ADUC and deleted the user object by mistake.  The conflicting terminology is another subject I will pass over here.

Haven’t been here enough.  Too busy working ;) 

So, I have embarked on the decision making adventure of choosing ESX 3.5 or Hyper-V for my new internal playground.  The playground is a shiny new ML370.  I have dual booted it with Beta Hyper-V and a trial of ESX 3.5 (more on exactly how that was accomplished later if I get time).
