Update 06/11/2015: We have now disabled the old method of recovering a mailbox which involved using GetRemovedMailbox and NewMailbox
RemovedMailbox and we no longer support the recovery of hard deleted mailboxes.

The process of recovering deleted users or mailboxes in a hybrid or cloudonly organization can be frustrating. When dealing with these scenarios, customers
would sometimes end up with multiple mailboxes for a single user, find that some emails are missing, or even lose data associated with other services. Often,
they would find those situations difficult to troubleshoot and they would call Microsoft support for help.
For a long time now, Exchange Online has had a capability called "soft delete" that allows a user to recover a mailbox with very little effort. Lets take a look at
how a mailbox recovery should be approached.

Great article. Any additional notes you can provide around restore options for "inactive mailboxes" mailboxes on litigation hold or IPH where the user has
since been deleted?
The "new" Approach provides a much better/easier way to recover mailboxes. Thanks.
@jpalarchio when you have an inactive mailbox it will essentially be in a soft deleted state meaning the steps similar to what is documented in this post will
work for recovering the data
@jpalarchio The approach documented in this blog will work for inactive mailboxes as well. Inactive Mailboxes should show up in a similar way that soft
deleted mailboxes do.

I may be wrong on this but I'm pretty sure that having the AD Recycle Bin enabled stopped DirSync from being able to preform the sync at least that was
the impression i got when using OnRamp for my test environment
What happens to the soft deleted mailbox after the NewMailboxRestoreRequest cmdlet is run? Is it empty? Could it be merged again to another mailbox?
@Jeff sorry for the delay I had to test it to verify, You can only perform the restore using the MailboxRstoreRequest cmdlet to one mailbox, subsequent
restore request of the same soft deleted mailbox to other active mailboxes fail

MailboxRestoreRequest : The term 'NewMailboxRestoreRequest' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function

EDB recovery software is an advance and effective third party software, it can easily restore mailbox folders Inbox, Outbox, Sent items, Journals, Notes,
Task, Draft etc. The software can fix edb files error and database corruption issue. http://www.exchangeserver.recoveryfiles.org/

Hi, nice write. Glad you are recommending this as I work exactly that way already : But maybe allow me to suggest a vital enhancement: In order to restore
the deleted mailbox so that users wont recognize that there is a new mailbox acting as the old one: Do not only takeover the SMTP addresses, also take
over the "old" LegacyExchangeDN as X400 Alias address to the new mailbox leave that LegacyDN as is. This will suppress NDR messages when other
users who wrote to that deleted mailbox before and/or have that mailbox in their contacts folder.
