Mobile users -- archive e-mail using CD-RWs

This tip was submitted to the SearchWin2000.com Tip Exchange by member Richard Perez. Let other users know how useful it is by rating the tip below.

The problem with this method was that when Outlook started up, it would not be able to access my archive since all the files were were 'read only'. With my new drive, however, I can place my CD-RW disc in and have access to my archive services (*.pst) without actually having to add them. Outlook will find the files -- not reject them because they are 'read-only'.

Granted, the drive doesn't perform as well as a normal CD when used for other functions, but when you're a 'traveling man' sometimes you have to make concessions!
