Re: How to automate Personal Folders PST backups in Outlook 2002 and 2000

well, this add in only reminds you to run a backup, it won't work
automatically. Pretty worthless.

I think the only way to automate the Outlook backup is using the
Windows built in System Backup utility, and setting up a repetitive
job that grabs the.pst file and backs it up elsewhere.

That's how I plan to backup all our users' email from now on.
