Beware of Data File Mgmt quirk

S

Starhi

This is a bug which MS should fix. If you have more than
one path to multiple Personal Address folders, note that
even though the entire path is shown down to the file
outlook.pst, if you have two folders that lead to
outlook.pst and outlook1.pst, the Data File Management
will show ONLY "outlook.pst" in both cases. It WILL NOT
show the correct path FILE name of "outlook.pst"
and "outlook1.pst"

Do note however that deleting the path will NOT delete
the .pst file that it is referencing and this is both
handy and dangerous. Handy because you won't hurt your
data by removing the path, dangerous because any additions
won't correctly number the pst outlook file so you won't
know which is which. It is a very confusing bug.
