I wonder if anyone might have a suggestion or two for the following dilemma...
Exchange Server 5.5, Outlook 2000 I am trying to give my boss options that will work for him to keep the size of his pst files manageable along with being able to get at the files easily... Some of his pst's have been to hell and back, but I've been able to get at them somehow each time there has been an issue to this point... I thought I was there with splitting up his Personal Folders by year, etc. and showing him how to check the size so they don't get too big. He claims he goes into all his mail at different times and wants it all to be accessible all the time. He's now decided he wants to be able to pull up the same Personal Folders at home that he does here at work. Then he also wants to move new items into those Folders both here and at home in one step. He decided that it would work so he went and copied his pst file to a CD and copied it to his hard drive at home, he couldn't get it open... I haven't been to his house but will most likely make a trip over there. So, I've been trying to come up with a solution that would help him without too much work on his part... So, I've tested with a small meaningless Personal Folder in my account, I find it easiest in this scenario to copy messages into Personal Folders here at work, then to actually move the messages into the folder from my Inbox when I get home, this would mean going through mail twice and I'm sure that won't go over well. I have also suggested that he keep Personal Folders on CD's, but he doesn't like that idea. I imagine there will be a ton of messages, why doesn't he get a laptop, he has one, but he likes his two Dell Precision workstations and would rather keep his mail on them... He's particular about the way he does things and likes what he likes, which, at times can make my job a bit difficult... I know I'm not the only one.
