First, archive your backup, image the operating system drive, archive the image, and put the archives off-site.


Do you have an image of your system drive from when it was working? If, so, restore it and update/ upgrade very carefully to avoid whatever package(s) broke it. Then build another e-mail server and migrate to it.


If you don't have working image of your system drive, or if you're ready to rebuild your existing machine anyway:

1. If your operating system and data are on different drives, remove the system drive.

2. Install a new system drive, do a fresh install of your preferred operating system, take an image of the system drive, archive the image, get your RAID working again, install and configure your e-mail server software, backup your data, image the system drive, archive the backup and image, and put the archives off-site.


HTH,

David
