Dude, where's my email?
May. 24th, 2007 12:06 pmThe new computer at work has mostly been rebuilt. Every minor detail has been entered into a log file. I'm still waiting on three things: the license key for Paint Shop Pro X, Office 2003 (which isn't on our file server), and my email from the past year. I thought it stayed on the server. I have an outstanding trouble ticket with the server team. Maybe I'll hear from them today.
In the meantime, I should probably take matters into my own hands. I took out the hard drive from the old system and will take it home with me tonight. I plan to download a copy of GetDataBack for NTFS and see if I can find my .pst file(s), which is what MS Outlook uses to save email. If I find the files, I might pony up the money to buy a license and recover the files. I'd prefer that my company buy a copy for the office, though.
And if anyone raises a stink, I'll pull an Admiral Hopper and say it's easier to apologize than to ask permission. :)
That said, has anyone ever worked with Gibson Research's SpinRite 6? Is there any comparison?
