Rebuilding a SBS 2008 - possible to recover Exchange (or AD) from filesystem?

$

Greetings,

We have a client with a SBS 2008 server with a corrupt OS volume which is no longer bootable.  They weren't doing any backups at all, so I have no candidates for a bare metal restore etc, and I think our only option at this point is to reinstall from scratch and create a new domain.

It looks like I still have a good copy of the Exchange datastore, posslibly the AD datastore as well.  Understanding that WS or other backups are not available, and I only have what was in the filesystem, do I have any options to recover mailbox data to the rebuilt server?

In years past we would've done this with Exmerge.  Most of the guidance I see for this involves backup/restore scenarios.

Thanks,
Drew
