Outlook 2000 - email retention
« on: October 30, 2007, 10:13:39 AM »
Hey everyone.....

All of my users currently use .pst files to store their email.  But, as of next year, .pst files will no longer be allowed in my organisation.  Therefore, my users will need to save their emails to folders on their personal drives.  The problem i have found, is that when an email is 'dragged and dropped' into the folder, its file extension changes to .msg and the date the email was sent is changed to the current date.  Is there a way to retain the original email date and also, is it possible to save the emails as .eml files in Outlook 2000.  My OS is Windows 2000 and there is no option to upgrade at this time. 

Open to suggestions

Thanks for your time

Tuck
