How can I verfiy that my Microsoft Outlook has been setup correctly to work with PC Data Backups?
You can verify that your Outlook is configured correctly by checking your MAPISVC.INF file. Search for this file on
your local computer.
The MAPISVC.INF file acts as the central database for MAPI message service configuration information. MAPISVC.INF
contains information about each of the message services installed on the workstation. Email Optimizer for pst files requires
Personal Folder Service to be configured. It could be verified by looking in MAPISVC.INF file (could be more than one
in user’s machine).
Under Services section there should be an MSPST MS entry
[Services]
MSEMS=Microsoft Exchange Server
MSPST AB=Personal Address Book
MSPST MS=Personal Folders File (.pst)
CONTAB=Outlook Address Book
EMABLT=Microsoft LDAP Directory
INTERSTOR=Internet Folders
O10ABP=Exchange Address Book
And also verify that all the following are with in the section headed with: MSPST MS
(All the following entries should be configured)
[MSPST MS]
PR_SERVICE_DLL_NAME=ms
Providers=MSPST MSP pst.dll
PR_SERVICE_INSTALL_ID={6485D262-C2AC-11D1-AD3E-10A0C911C9C0}
PR_SERVICE_SUPPORT_FILES=mspst.dll
PR_SERVICE_ENTRY_NAME=PSTServiceEntry
PR_RESOURCE_FLAGS=SERVICE_NO_PRIMARY_IDENTITY
