This program snaps-in to Outlook.  So, I don't think it cares where the =
PST files are.  After you install it you won't see any folders or icons =
in your Start bar.  It is part of Outlook and when you close Outlook it =
will then prompt you for the initial configuration.  You can then set =
the necessary parameters.

Glad I could help.  I think this is the first time I was able to offer =
some useful information on this board.  I've used a lot though...

Do you know if you can specify a different location where the pst =
folders
are stored other than the normal default location?  Not the backups, but
the actual PST folders?  I would like to suggest we use the program here
at work, but our PST folders are not stored in the default C:\Documents
and Settings\Profiles\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data =
location,
but are stored somewhere else.  So we would need to be able to specify
where the pst folders are stored?
Thanks,

There's a great utility that will do this automatically for you.  It is =
=3D
called "Personal Folders Backup" and it can be found on Download.com.  =
=3D
It's made from Microsoft and amazingly, it doesn't cost anything and IT =
=3D
WORKS!  They should try this more often.

It can be set to backup all contents of the PST (mail, notes, tasks, =3D
calendar, etc.) to any location (including network drives) on a =3D
scheduled basis, daily, weekly, etc.

I hope this helps...
