Windows 2008 Server crashed - Need to find out where remote files were located

We have a client that was running windows 2008 server.  A previous IT person had setup their system, so we were walking into a situation where there were many unknowns.  Server was mainly handling emails only, and we were able to get their exchange database off and export PSTs to hosted exchange via microsoft.

Everything went fine with that, however one user said that he used to access files on the server via the remote web app as he described.  He would go to the following url:

https://mail.theirdomain.com/remote/menu.aspx#

and he would use his login and then he would see several links to folders.  He could then click on those and see his desired files.  

We were able to get the server booted again, however we could not find any of the files he described on it at all, leaving me to suspect that perhaps this remote link was accessing another PC.  

We have the old server up and running, however the link above is no longer active because we have pointed the domain to the new hosted exchange server.  As I am still learning and my boss wanted me to research this on my own and figure out how to find out where these files are located.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  

Just as a note I did try access mail.localhost.com/remote/menu.aspx# on the server but this did not work.  Is there any way in the IIS 7 management console to figure out where this was pointing to?
