Where does Outlook 2007 store emails locally?

[ljCharlie]

We are using Outlook 2007 with Exchange server. We have a user who has

been moving his emails off of the Exchange server to some folders he

created or by Auto Archive feature in Outlook 2007. He basically drag

and drop the emails from his Exchange server Inbox to his folders on the

left side. The question is, where are all of these folders full of

emails located on the local computer? At first I thought it must have

been the Auto Archive feature that kicks in every 14 days and created

those folders for him to be able to drag and drop, but when I check the

following location the archive.pst file size is very small.



C:\Documents and Settings\%your username%\Local Settings\Application

Data\Microsoft\Outlook\



The total folders of emails must be about 1 to 2GB in file size. Where

else on the local machine could Outlook had put it?



Any help is much appreciated.

Where ever the user wants to put it. Search for the .PST extension.

For now I'm going to assumed that the user does not redirect where

Outlook will save it to. The .pst file I've found so far is the

archive.pst and the file size looks way too small for 4-6 years of

emails.
