BESR 2010 questions
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 6 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
1. How long is the trialware good for??
2. WILL Symantec release BESR 2010 within the next 30-60 days?? I don't want the trialware to expire.
3. Regarding the GRO option, I understand that the readme says that Outlook 2003 or 2007 must be installed onto the Exchange 2003 server. Can GRO function without Outlook 2003 installed??
4. For using GRO, what does this mean?? "Outlook 2003 or 2007 must be configured to support message forwarding."
Is there some special setting for this within Outlook 2003??
Is this the same as clicking the 'Forward' button on an email message??
Thank you, Tom

TomMLS,
1. The trial lasts for 60 days
2. BESR 2010 was released on 2nd November
3. In order to recover Exchange items, you must have Outlook installed. Note: this does not have to be on the Exchange server itself. You can recover items using GRO from any machine where GRO/Outlook are installed.
4. "Outlook 2003 or 2007 must be configured to support message forwarding." - where did you see this quote?
As per admin guide:
To return the email message to the user, do one of the following:
■ If you have Microsoft Outlook installed, double-click the message to open
it in Outlook. You can use Outlook to send the message back to its owner.

■ To forward the message in Outlook, right-click the message, and then
click Forward.
Outlook opens a new message. The message that you want to forward is
included as an attachment. You can then forward the message to the
original owner.

For Granular Restore Option to have full functionality, you must install Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on the server that is running the Granular Restore Option console. Also, Outlook 2003 or 2007 must be configured to support message forwarding.
Thank you, Tom
TomMLS, I have received
TomMLS,
I have received confirmation that there are no specific configuration settings that are required for Outlook. I suspect that statement will be removed from future readme files.
