Special treatment of .pst files (not .ost files)

Hello Martin,

I changed the local transfer mode of incremental backups to “block differences - hashed”
And it works as expected. But unfortunately there is still a huge amount of data is transfered.

For example user 1:
He has two pst files: 5,1GB and 2,4GB
When he just opens outlook and close it again (no emails are moved to one of the .pst fils) the diff is 2,4GB!?!

Why are these files changed by just open and close them? Stupid Micro$oft…

I noticed that the file size doesn’t change when moving files to one of the archives. So I think I am stuck here.

One possible solution (to my problem!) could be to make the Excluded files (with wildcards) and Included files (with wildcards) “backup type (incremental of full) dependent”. This would make it possible for me to exclude the .pst files from the incremental file backups.

Anyhow it would be great to define these Include and exclude files path dependent. But this is a nice to have :slight_smile:

What do you think?

With kind regards
Martijn
