Running the PST Collector task

The PST Collector task copies PST files from users' computers to the PST holding folder. It copies only the PST files that have a status of "Ready to copy".

The account under which the task runs must have Delete access to the original location of the PST file. The easiest way to ensure the correct access is to run the task using an account in the domain administrators group.

See Setting up accounts to manage PST migration.
