I have several users who had their Outlook 2010 exchange accounts setup with 'cached exchange mode' and this does not need to be the case as they are on a terminal server which is on the same hardware as the exchange server.<br />
<br />
I have unticked the option but the large (10GB avg) ost files still exist. I thought doing a compact on the OST would help but it didn't.<br />
<br />
Is there anything i can do to reclaim this space without deleting the account from Outlook?
