This message is cross posted in two groups public.outlook and
public.outlook.general
At work, I keep a personal pst file for personal email in a seperate
directory with personal files. Every 6 months to a year, I create a new one,
retire the old one and back it up to CD, no problem. This keeps my personal
stuff completely seperate from work stuff.
Oh yeah, Windows2000Pro & Outlook 2000 (connected to Exchange server I
believe, whatever that means)
I would like to do the same with my contact information. It seems to me that
the contact info is in the "main" pst file. I cannot even find this file in
the services area. My guess is that the native Inbox etc. is part of the
Microsoft Exchange Server that I see in the services dialog. I would like to
keep all of my contacts in the personal pst file or at least in a seperate
personal file in my personal directory. The personal directory is just a
directory in the root that I have arbitrarily called "personal". Our
corporate "global address list" list is kept on the server I guess and I
don' t care about that.
I am also very confused about how Outlook uses both a personal address book
and a contacts list. I think I had the personal address book from a long
time ago before we migrated to Outlook 2000 and Exchange server. I just try
to always use the contacts list now. Can anyone can shed some light on this?

Jim
