Exchange 2007 Folder Archiving
I have a client using SBS 2008. ie they have Exchange 2007.
They handle different projects for different clients and when the project is complete. they wish to archive the outlook folder which was used to manage that particular project.
I am looking for a semi automated method to complete this. I do not want to use the Microsoft Outlook archiving method as it is too clumsy.
requirements/wish list
operate from within Outlook 2007
copy the entire folder. ie emails with attachments, to an external database or pst file and/or CD drive
delete the folder and emails from outlook
I do not want to store every email which comes into echange in the archive (as some third party products do) only specific folders.
to be able to handle large attachments, these projects include dwg and pdf files
I do not want a document management system (they already have one), just an archiving system
nice to have
be able to view the archived email from within outlook.
Has anyone had experience with this type of request, either scripting or third party app
Thanks
