Hello,
We have a problem at work with an overloaded email account. The worker is way over the ‘limit’ (which we cannot enforce on him). He likes the way with Outlook he can organise/view his old messages by date/subject/sender etc. He wants to be able to always access them this way.
To accommodate this person, we want to be able to back-up his messages on a CD (or if necessary on the main-server) in a format that he can open them in outlook without actually re-importing them permanently into his inbox each time. Then we can delete his in-box and sent items.
I have done a backup in PST format, but, when he opens it in his inbox, all the messages are re-imported into a subfolder in the inbox – and we are back to square one. The only solution I can offer at the moment is to delete that subfolder every time after he has accessed his backed-up messages. But this is not a great solution.
I’d appreciate some ideas. Thanks.
