When you create a backup of a mailbox database level virtual copy, Recovery Manager
automatically creates a virtual copy of the mailbox database and mounts it, your backup software
backs up the virtual copy to media, and Recovery Manager unmounts the virtual copy. You can
also choose to have Recovery Manager automatically remove the newly created virtual copy.
