Using a GPO to set outlook pst path...

[mviltan2]

We're using office xp. At the mo my users mailboxes are way to big and we want to archive their emails to a shared folder.

I've downloaded the office resource kit tools and was just wondering if i can do this for all users at the same time using a gpo. If so can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

yeah we're using windows 2000 server and echange 2000 with outlook xp clients.

I've found the outlook adm file to add in the group policy editor but in the auto archive options there is only a couple of things you can do with auto archiving. You can only enable it and choose how many months back etc but you cannot choose where the users archive is kept.

i've just found this software but i'd rather do it for free!
