Recommend exporting extraneous OSTs into PSTs so you don't have to go
through this again. :)

M, cool trick. Thanks for sharing it. :)

And before others jump on me for answering this incorrectly as exporting
to PST is known to cause loss of data...

I should correct this. By saying "export to PST" I meant login to the
old OST, create a new PST, right-click and drag folders from OST into
PST, then choose Copy. That way you won't have to worry about data in
obsolete OSTs as next time you might not be so lucky.

Agreed.
Something different needs to be done. Having many gigabytes of PST files is
obviously a poor way to manage information that is as important as it was to
this person. But convincing a manager otherwise is a challenge, since it
cost $$$. But this is the perfect time to make the case for spending $$$
for a archive solution.

Anyone have any experience with Postini email archive, or something similar?
