Stellar Repair for Exchange provides an option to perform the search operation that helps you to find particular mailboxes or emails and save them in PST, MSG, EML, HTML, RTF, or PDF format.

The software provides two ways to search and save recover mails. You can use the Find Message or Search option to find and save the mailboxes or mailbox items. It also has an option that allows you to search mailbox items based on specified criteria, such as Any Criteria or Exact Match. 

Additionally, you can refine the search results based on various fields, such as To, From, Cc, Subject, Body, Attachment Name, Importance, and Item Type fields. This allows you to quickly recover specific mailboxes and items in desired format.

The steps to search and save mails after recovery are as follows:

  • Open Stellar Repair for Exchange and then Browse or use the Find option to select the EDB file that contains the required mailboxes or mailbox items. The Find button helps you locate the EDB file from the drive, folder, or subfolder.
