PST file disappears overnight
Hi we've got a XP machine connected to FTgate for emails basically out
of 35 users one user when she logs on in the morning cannot open outlook due to the pst not being there. Three days now i have checked the path sent all the emails back to her from ftgate and watched the pst file grow. Yesterday we switched off the machine and did a reboot everything looked fine, but this morning it has dissappeared again, they are using roaming profiles and it is set up like all the other users (Ive checked). ANy clues please. Thanks Ian

I would advise to start using a new file location for the pst file.
Every directory is OK. You choose the best one: on the c-drive, home-drive, or a network-drive. Start Outlook and the question (you know) will be there. Browse to the pst and I think the problem is solved. The problem of the normal location of the pst file is thats in the user profile directory. If the user has no rights, Windows will create a temporaly directory. Or when using roaming profiles, windows wants to copy it to the homedirectory when logging of. And that my take a while..
