Guys

I need to set a group policy which will allow users to still see there PST
files but be unable to add any more data to them.

Any ideas??

Group policy won't have anything to do with this....Outlook requires full
read/write access to a PST file in order to even open it.
It would be better to get rid of PST files entirely if you have Exchange.
 
Hi Lanwench

Actuallly I have now resolved this issue through using Group Policy. All I
had to do was set the Max file size PST group policy to 1mb. Therefore once
a user has reached this limit it will not let any further data be applied to
the folder.

Cheers

Ahh....interesting way to deal with that; I wouldn't have thought of it.
Thanks for the tip. Veering a bit off topic, you might want to look at
