We use Exchange Server 2003 and Outlook 2003. Is there a way to prevent users from using personal folders with Outlook 2003?
Sue Mosher, Microsoft Outlook MVP, provides a registry key that you can use to disable the use of .PST files. Create or modify the following DWORD registry value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\DisablePST Set the value to 1 to disable .PST files, or 0 (default) to enable them. Note that .PST files that are already in a user’s email profile will still be able to function. Therefore, you should manually remove all .PST files from the profile prior to setting this value. This also includes disabling the auto-archiving feature, which takes advantage of .PST files.
