I've got a question about how transaction logs are replayed.
Let's say I stored my Exchange database in one location and all the log and system files in another.
I have logs from the 15th to the 20th of the month.
I dismount then delete the database and replace it with a copy from the 5th of the month.
When the database remounts it will begin playing in the logs and I will end up with a database that has mail up until the 5th of the month and then mail from the 15th to the 20th.
Fortunately I am not in this situation! But I appreciate your help making sure I understand the relationship beween databases and logs.
