Hi Pascal

I use to do this with the archive.pst folder in a Exchange env. Be aware
that there are some data corruption issues that may occur if you lose
connectivity or the laptop/server crashes. If it does you can almost be
guaranteed that you'll have to run a PST repair (scanpst.exe)

You'll also find that by default (in W2K anyway) PST files wont be
included in offline files. You can certainly modify this through
gpedit.msc but be warned that it is possible to create many copies of
the one file as their individual timestamps change.

I also read somewhere that the access method for PST files is not very
good over a LAN. I don't remember the meat of the argument but the
bottom line is that it is slower than using a HDD copy.

I found the best method here was to actually change the server or put
one in! If you cant use Exchange look at an IMAP server where the
primary mailbox copy is held at one location. It only unfortunately
handles email. (not contacts etc)

You could of course copy the PST file back and forth to the server (as a
backup) at login and shutdown time, if data protection is your issue.

Cheers Bob
