You could even get your creative skills going and produce an edited photo of all the very wrong things you want to do to your PC when you find out that your PST files are damaged and unrecoverable!

PST files are personal storage tables where Microsoft Outlook data in stored on a local computer. These files are still widely used despite being known to be unreliable and cause problems from a compliance and usability perspective. As a solution to this problem administrators use email archiving to store all the organization’s email correspondence.

Email archiving is also important for judicial reasons where eDiscovery regulations and compliance legislation states that all emails must be stored in their original format and recovered should the need arise. Email archiving is the simplest and most efficient solution to keeping an organized store of all emails that is searchable and through which emails can be recovered. Failure to comply with these laws could result in serious legal ramifications.
