I'm looking for suggestions on how I could log in to a backed up Exchange 2010 mailbox database and view an offline snapshot of the mailbox(es) within that database.
For example, I have a 2010 Exchange server, with a single mailbox database. We are backing up the database and could restore this database to a separate, temporary location.
Once the database is restored, I am familiar with restoring the content of that database to the live database, but my question is, can I log in to that database via Outlook in some way so I can view the mailbox contents prior to restoring?
