Q&A
Q: How does Asigra handle message level restores for emails?
A: The agentless Message Level Restore (MLR) module allows users to selectively back up and restore individual mailboxes and email messages for one user or for an entire network, depending on needs. Using selective filtering, administrators can save time, money and resources by restoring only selected mailboxes or emails, instead of having to restore the entire Exchange, Domino or GroupWise databases.
