One other thing, I need to be able to convert an OST file that I have over to a PST. The original exchange server is out of the question here, I don't have access to that, but now I'm only left with this OST file. The only ways I have seen are through paid 3rd party software. Is this the only way that I can go? Or does this mean I am forced to reverse engineer the file format myself to write my own program to do it?
Who's to say how reliable some of these programs are too? They all seem like scams to me. $200-$700 just for a converter? :huh: (Needless to say I stopped looking at the prices after maybe the first 2 programs I found being offered.)
I just need the data to be readily accessible, and after that it (to my knowledge) is going to just be put away into an archive for if the need is there at some point in the future to view all the emails. I don't even know what exchange server version the file was cached from... I would assume 2003 or 2010 if I was to guess though. Definitely not any later than 2010 or earlier than 2003 though, so 2007 is a possibility.
