How to create new PST files for backing up/storing your emails?
RE: MS Outlook
Hi Murugan,
Welcome to the forum, thank you for your post, in answer to your question:
You would normally create a new .pst file using the Tools menu; so, follow these steps:
1. On the Tools menu, click E-Mail Accounts.
2. Click View or change existing e-mail accounts, and then click Next.
3. In the E-Mail Accounts dialog box, click New Outlook Data File.
4. In the Types of storage area, click Office Outlook Personal Folders File (.pst) to create a new Outlook 2003 .pst file.
5. Click OK.
6. Use the default Outlook folder location, or you can locate a different folder location.
7. In the File name box, type a name for the new .pst file, or you can use the default name. Click OK.
8. In the Name box, type a title for the .pst file, or you can use the default title of 'Personal Folders.' The title that you enter in the Name box is the name that is used on the Outlook 2003 All Mail Folders list, and it is applied to any shortcuts that are made for the .pst file on the Outlook Bar. You can also select an encryption setting and a password for the .pst file. After you select the settings that you want, click OK. Note: You can't change the encryption settings once you have created the .pst file.
9. In the Deliver new e-mail to the following location: area, click the name of the new .pst file, and then click Finish.
The new .pst file is added to your Folder List.
I hope that has helped, regards Pete
