I have a user with corrupt data. I have the .gz backup of the user's mailbox. I would like to create a temporary user and restore it to there to see what is in it.
Help!

Stuart,
you could create a test mailnode, then restore the user data into that using the new mailnode.
When restoring the data, it has to be the same name, but can be a different mailnode.
so, steps are:
create mailnode (omaddmn)
create user account on new mailnode, with "-x" option so its hidden from directory
copy data back in using omcpinu
