Abstract: A full-text index can be created for each mailbox of an EDB to facilitate the performance of complex queries to quickly search for email data. In this way, relevant email data can be identified and retrieved quickly and efficiently from the full-text index rather than from the EDB. To create such indexes, each email in a mailbox can be retrieved and processed to convert the email from its native format into textual name/value pairs which can then be submitted for indexing. This use of name/value pairs to index each email enables the emails across all mailboxes to be efficiently queried using any possible combination of values.

Abstract: Emails can be recovered in a quick and granular fashion by restoring an EDB within an emulated Exchange server environment and then creating a full-text index for each mailbox in the restored EDB. The full-text index could then be employed to perform searches for particular emails thereby leveraging the granular search capabilities that the full-text index provides. Any emails that are identified by searching the full-text index can then be retrieved from the restored EDB in the emulated Exchange environment and populated into the production Exchange environment. In this way, a user can restore specific emails to the production environment in a quick and efficient manner.
