Dear All,
I am haveing Exchange Enviroment Here in My Network. All of my users i convert them from using mailbox to use Personal Folder, and all of the E-mails will be stored locally on the client PC as per our company Policy. Now, i want to understand the difrrent between using Personal Folder & Autoarchive. ? If i disable the AutoArchive, and depending on the PST, do you think i am correct or is there any Problem ? if i did not using Personal folder & used Mailbox, and enable autoarchive, what is the different between the PST & Autoarchive, ? 3- what will happen if i lost the Pst file, can i use the Autoarchive file instaed of it ? thanks & Best Regards, Medo |

The best place for mail is in the Exchange mailbox and not a PST. The
reason for this is that sites generally backup the Exchange server nightly which guarantees that in event of a disaster that users mail can be restored. In any event, the autoarchive engine uses personal folder files. If you disable the use of PST files, then the autoarchive engine should fail. "Medo_in_Egypt" wrote in message ...

If the policy in the company that PST files are okay to use, then don't
disable either. "Medo_in_Egypt" wrote in message ...
