EXPERT RESPONSE
Microsoft recommends against .PSTs stored on remote machines. In fact, this is unsupported, as explained in Microsoft Knowledge Base article "Personal folder files are unsupported over a LAN or over a WAN link."
You have two options:
- Use the Archive option within Microsoft Outlook (which isn't a corporately manageable option)
- Deploy a third-party email archiving solution such as: Symantec, Quest, HP, Zantaz, Mimosa, ZipLip, etc.
