Outlook 2003 Backup Add-in + Encrypted PST Files

G

Guest

I have downloaded the Backup Add-in for Outlook 2003, and set it to remind me
every 4 days to backup my two PST's; the main one and a private,
password-protected PST.

Every 4 days, when I close Outlook, it will pop-up and remind me to backup.
However, only my main PST is shown as needing to be backed up. I have ensured
that both PST's are checked for backup in the backup configuration. In fact,
both are listed and successfully backed up if I open Outlook and click File
-> Backup.

What I would like to achieve is to be able to simply click "Save Backup" on
the pop-up reminder every 4 days and have both PST file's be backed up. I've
included version specifications and the like below. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.



Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 version (11.6359.6360) SP1
Part of Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003

Disabled Items: (none)

Outlook Backup Addin (COM Add-In) version (11.0.6024.0)
Behavior: Load at Startup

Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Home Version 5.1 (Build
2600.xpsp2_gdr.040517-1325 : Service Pack 1)

That's not what it's showing you. It's just showing you what's available
for backup, possibly with a check mark already applied to one of the PSTs.
The PFBACKUP application makes no determination at all about what _needs_ to
be backed up. That's for you to decide.

My experimentation indicates any check mark I add for the other PSTs that
originally weren't checked will be retained for any subsequent backup, so,
at least for me, once I select the PSTs the first time, the "Save Backup"
button will include them on each subsequent running.
