MTG: Card ruling question.?

I have both Demonmail Hauberk on the field and an undying creature. Can I sack the undying creature in order to equip it with the hauberk? Or would it not be a legal target of the equip since it would go to the graveyard before returning to the field?

Example: sack Diregraf Messanger to pay the cost to equip the Hauberk > equip hauberk to the same messanger when it returns to the battlefield?

    You can sacrifice the Geralf's Messenger to the Hauberk but the Messenger that comes back will not be the same permanent that you targeted with the ability in the first place so the Hauberk will not get attached to it. When something leaves play, it "forgets" everything that it once was on the battlefield including the fact that it was targeted by something. Sorry but the combo will not work.
