The OST files are just like PST (personal folders)they are a file that grows up as users save stuff to them, Do a search or find for *.ost once you know the location, using the control Panel "Mail" icon you can add it to the profile. -----Original Message----- From: Javier name [mailto:rowonefirst@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 9:23 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Re: OST files http://www.MSExchange.org/ the OST file resides in the local machine, is not deleted when you delete the profile, you can setup outlook 2000 to use offline folder and point to the correct file, .ost extension. >From: "Eric Lanyon" <ELanyon@xxxxxxx> >Reply-To: "[ExchangeList]" <exchangelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> >To: "[ExchangeList]" <exchangelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> >Subject: [exchangelist] OST files >Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2003 08:56:09 -0800 > >http://www.MSExchange.org/ > >I have a user that was part of another domain and recently came into >ours.
