I used to work in IT (data warehousing, network engineering, server admin, programming, etc...).

These people are FULL of SHIT! Sorry for my French, but there is no other way to put it!

Backup tapes are restored on spare servers, it usually take one to two days (done automatically), and then you either copy/print the emails/recovered data back into place and Voila! Your done!

The cost is MINIMAL! The time is MINIMAL! The effort is MINIMAL!

This cover-up, this avoidance and this misdirection is MONUMENTAL!

It was not a witch hunt. Over sixty people eventually were convicted of felonies.

This is of interest:

From Article II of the Articles of Impeachment adopted by the House Judiciary Committee:

He [President Nixon] has, acting personally and through his subordinates and agents, endeavoured to obtain from the Internal Revenue Service, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, confidential information contained in income tax returns for purposed not authorized by law, and to cause, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, income tax audits or other income tax investigations to be initiated or conducted in a discriminatory manner.

Nixon was an unethical person who surrounded himself with similar people and paid the price for it. Everything that happened as a result of the Watergate investigation was well-deserved.

All indications point to justification for impeaching Obama and removing him from office.

I thought the same of Clinton, but the Senate failed to live up to their oaths of office.

Nixon's arrogance in believing that the could tape all conversations in the Oval Office without fear of accountability is probably matched by the arrogance of Obama's people believing that they can disappear years of emails.

If Lois Lerner is offered immunity and threatened with jail for continued silence, this could get interesting very quickly. It would also be very interesting if somebody anonymously supplied years of emails to Congress.

Even if it is a disaster-recovery backup which can only be restored in full, not by individual mailbox, they could (fairly) easily restore the backup to a Recovery Storage Group

Yep. We did it that way for years. You design your mail stores in relatively manageable sizes and restore the whole thing. XMERGE will then excise the correct mailbox or its contents to a PST file which can be mounted by any Outlook client. It ain't rocket science.

Good read on the situation. Hope your last paragraph comes true.
