Hey hey,

I want to know if its possible to cache outlook archive folders. Heres the scenario, I have a MD of company who has a giant inbox (6gb!) and is really chunking up the Exchange DB. He is already using cache mode on the laptop which is working fine but I want him to pull all his old data out of exchange and wack it into an archive folder. now this is fine as the archive folder will be stored locally on the laptop but I will need to backed as the old data is still required in event of a HD failure. I tried using offline folders/sync'ing but you can use these for PST files. Anyone have a better way?
and no, he aint gonna delete the old emails, his company his choice (alhough I have told him).

Cheers

I had this same problem with my 2 MD's as well. Try GFI Mail Archiver - goes through to a SQL database, for everyone, then keeps exchange nice and clean , just set up retention policies on exchange, and there u have it.. Try and stay away from pst files. They used? to have a 2gb limit and are prone to get corrupted. Also with GFI its a web interface, so they can get access externally if you let it through your firewall etc...
