But even with full and incremental backups it's not supported on tape backups, right? I tried the B2D method last night and now I can restore individual items from the public folders as well. It's an alternative, though not how I wish it'd work.
Is this designed behaviour then? Howcome I can restore single e-mails from users' mailboxes from tape jobs but not single e-mails from public folders? Now I'm stuck with both a B2D and a tape backup taking extra disk space and time during my backup window.

Well I've been watching this thread over a month now, hoping on a solution.
I have the exact same problems reported in this thread...B2D works fine, cannot see any mailboxes when I backup to tape.
My Exchange 2007 has not gone into our live production environment, so I thought it would have been resolved by now....well I have to go live in a week.
Today I decided to upgrade to BE 12.5 & it worked the first time through!
We have a maintenance agreement, so the upgrade did not cost anything.(except the maintenance agreement itself)
My setup is a 32bit 2003 backup server, backing up Exchange 2007 across the wire....the public folder is still an issue & I have a B2D solution going on for that, but now I can fully commit Exchange 2007 mailboxes to tape & not have to backup to disk.
Not really a great solution for some of you, but upgrading to 12.5 works like a charm.

All,
These forums are Peer-To-Peer forums. Symantec employees will post here when we are available to do so.
Dp-a, the issue you are reporting, not being able to restore public folder items from tape is an issue that is working as designed. If you wish to restore individiual items from public folders you will either need to back them up to disk, or duplicate them from tape to disk then restore the items. This is documented in the Admin guide for versions 11d, 12, and 12.5. It is on page 1261 of the 12.5 Administrators guide, which you can view at this link. ftp://exftpp.symantec.com/pub/support/products/Backup_Exec_for_WindowsNT/308400.pdf
RNW, I would suggest calling into support to have us look into the issue with you. Here is the link to Technical support's contact information. http://www.symantec.com/business/support/contact_techsupp_static.jsp
