***You can just rename the STM and EDB to another file Extension, then try
to mount the DB. It will tell you that you are mounting an empty DB. I
would keep your old DB.

***You shouldn't need to do this since you haven't mail disabled anything.
New mailboxes will show up after you mount the new store.

**** I have done alot of DR work with Exchange, this is pretty close to a
Dialtone restore. If you aren't comfortable with doing this you could call
Microsoft Support and have them work with you. You also need to consider how
your going to avoid this issue after you reimport the mailboxes back into
Exchange.
