Hello
I was wondering if you could help me. I am still trying
to understand something about pst and dbx files. I want
to know whether essentially pst files and dbx files are
the same. They obviously are not exactly the same, but
whether their structure is the same. I have been
speaking to different people, and what they tell me is
contradictory!
Do pst and dbx files work in the same way, such that when
you delete an email, you are not actually deleting the
email, but you are rather deleting the link that shows
where in the file the data is held,has now been deleted.
Which is very similar to a FAT system, and you delete a
file from a computer, you are not deleting the file
itself, but the reference to where the file is located. I
believe this is how a PST file works. Am I right in
saying this is how a dbx file works? I thought so, until
somebody told me that the pst and dbx files are totally
different file structure.
If you are able to clarify what I have said, and how
exactly the dbx file differs to the pst file, if it does
at all.
Many thanks
