    Hello All,

    we got the situation when due wrong filter rule all files with .doc extension in user mailboxes replaced by forefront .txt message. All .doc files currently are in quarantine not in user mailboxes. Resend each .doc file from quarantine back to user is not a solution. I just wondering is there any possibility to get them back in user mailboxes? Any powershell scripts? Or function in Forefront Security Console?

    We have Windows Small Business Server 2008 with installed Microsoft Forefront Security for Exchange Server 2007.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Hi,

     

    Thank you for the post.

     

    As far as I know, we can restore the files from Forefront Server Security Administrator Console. Please refer to the following steps:

    1.      open FSS console, click “REPORT”

    2.      click “Quarantine”, then select each quarantine message, and click “Save As”, you can restore the files.

    Hi,

    if you go into quarantine and save the files to your harddisc you can read them.
