Have a big ZFS backup problem....

[CopyRunStart]

Can I recover from this?

I sent snapshot1 through snapshot3 to a backup server zpool. I then deleted snapshot1 through snapshot3 on the source. I can no longer send incrementals to the backup server zpool, because I can't do snapshot3 to snapshot4, because I deleted snapshot3 on the source.

Can I re-import snapshot3 to the source? I also have snapshots1 through snapshots3 saved to file on a third server if that helps at all.

No, there's no way to recreate an in-between snapshot, so I'm afraid you'll have to do a full transfer again to reach a common state with snapshots that allow you to do incremental sends.
