Morning all, I’m guessing your inboxes are a little quieter today, judging by the headlines!

 

A quick reminder - you may already know this, but it’s one of the most common questions we receive about Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365: 

 

“If Microsoft 365 goes down, can I still access my backed-up data?”

Yes - you can access and download your backed-up data, provided you can sign in to Veeam Data Cloud and the service remains available. Restoring directly into Microsoft 365 depends on the affected services being available.

VDC Individual Email & Full Mailbox Download:

Here is a snapshot showing how to download your email from the latest restore point.

 

Likewise if you want to download the entire mailbox to avoid downloading individual emails, you can select the mailbox and download the full .pst too:
 

 

Plus, for those using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365, you can also  access and download the backed-up data.

 

Cheers
