If I want to store the archive folders for users on the network so that they
are backed up nightly, is this possible? Also, if a users archive folder is
now reaching close to 2 GB, should we create another archive folder?

LAN PST files are unsupported by Microsoft:

Yes, Outlook supports several PST files in one profil.

I prefer to "backup" PST files with this Microsoft freeware addin:

Thanks Oliver for replying. I thought that was the answer, but I didn't want
it to be true. So, with the add-in, do end-users have to individually backup
their .pst files, since they are stored locally then? If so, this is a
nightmare for network administrators. I would have to hire an intern to do
this type of activity, since you know that end-uers will not actually do it.
Are their other alternatives for managing archiving with Outlook 2003 and
Exchange 2003? Please say yes.

Dear GR3555,

Correct.

The program do this automatically if you close Outlook.

My pricelist:

Say no: 0 €
Say maybe: 10 €
Say yes: 1,000 € ;-)

To backup an Exchange server is much more difficult than to backup a PST
file.

Exchange backup solutions:
http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/...-NTBACKUP.html

"How to automatically back up your personal folders file in Outlook 2000 and
Outlook 2003"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/238782/en-us

Another way is to use a "Batch" file or a VBscript which will be started
with a "Planed Task" after you start your computer. With a "Planed Task" you
start this Batch file /VBscript and this will copy a PST file from your
Harddisk to a network folder.

On our website we have a VBscript for:

"If you want to copy the PST file to a "Server", NAS or a backup computer,
you can use a VBscript to copy automatically a PST file to another
location:"

Maybe it helps.

Oliver,
Boy, I want to charge your rates when I say yes to helping out my
co-workers. :-) I could retire while I'm young. I think the automated backup
of the .pst files will work. I backup Exchange on the server level, but will
need to implement either the VBscript or something like it to transfer over
their archive files from the local drive or someone will cry when they have a
hard drive failure. I wish everyone could just delete all the emails they
get, but in the world of CYA, it isn't possible to do this. Thanks for your
assistance.

Hello

You can also try BackupMyFolder! from AddOnMail (www.addonmail.com),
it's a freeware that allow you to schedule the backup of PST files
inside your profil even if Outlook is started. You can configure your
backup PST file on a share
