Ankur Kothari, the Microsoft program manager responsible for Exchange’s compliance features, talked up the PST capture tool that Microsoft announced last July at his session at the Exchange Connections conference in Las Vegas. Ankur said that the utility was “revolutionary” because it has the ability to scan repositories such as network file shares to discover PST files and then match them against user mailboxes to allow administrators to quickly discover and import data in the PSTs into the Exchange Store. The utility is free because it’s a way to encourage users to move away from PSTs and take advantage of the expanded storage and compliance capabilities that Microsoft has delivered in Exchange 2010. Apparently Microsoft will ship the PST Capture tool before the end of 2011. We shall see.
