Overview

When attempting to restore mail servers using the kmsrecover command in Kerio Connect, users may encounter issues related to the restoration of archive files. A common misconception is that archive files are automatically included in the backup and restoration process. However, this is not the case. The problem arises due to the fact that archive files and active archive folders are not included in the automatic backup process.

Solution

Active archive folders are also not backed up automatically, so they require manual backup using third-party programs. Please note that the archive you can access via the UI and search is likely for the current period, not historical archives.
