You are right. That was an incorrect answer. I was recovering an
Exchange server this way yesterday, so it was fresh in my mind, but it
was on the 2003 platform.

This feature was specific to SBS until the release of Exchange 2007 SP2.
It takes extra steps to enable it on regular server.

This, however, should answer your question.
