This:
 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.5

It's fairly common that messages produced by Microsoft programs violate
recommendations etc.  For example messages from Microsoft programs are
always misplaced in threads because neither the References: nor
the In-Reply-To: headers are set.

I have jotted down some notes on performing a hot backup (which is what Bill is referring you to), and I included a script called pg_hotbackup that automates the relatively simple tasks required to take a snapshot of the cluster data directory.

In that link there is a discussion, and a link to the Wiki article which is located here:
