Exchange 5.5 restore of individual mailbox from full Information Store Bkup

Client has Exchange 5.5, Windows 2000, and Backup Exec 9.1. They were only doing a full backup of the Information Store and Directory. An employee's mailbox was deleted on 2-2-2007. They have a backup from 1-19-2007 of the IS and Directory, but don't want to restore the entire Information Store and lose all current email. What process should we do to restore the missing mailbox and still keep the email/mailboxes that has propagated since Jan. 19th?

With Ex 5.5, all you can do is restore to an alternate server, named the same as the Production Server, running the same version and patch level as the Production Server (doesn't have to be in the domain, can be in it's own workgroup). Then use ExMerge to copy the mailbox to the production environment
