Well, maybe so. I've never had any problems with the OST's on my whole-disk encrypted TrueCrypt systems. But I don't use PGP so maybe there's something special going on there. Then again I've been supporting Outlook/Exchange for the better part of 16 years and I can't recall ever hearing of a known issue with PGP disk encryption. <shrug>
What version of Outlook are you using? Ben M.

Apparently the .OST's get easily corrupted on machines that have PGP and calendaring meetings, etc, goes haywire [1] [1]Haywire defined as it's on my calendar and not yours, or when I modify it I see both versions (or maybe just the latest, sometimes) but yours only sees one and it may or may not be the correct revision. Or maybe you'll get a meeting conflict notice, complaining essentially about seeing itself twice, and choosing "fix it" removes both instances. From: Ben M.

Are they Outlook issues? Does the vendor think the encryption is interfering with cached Exchange mode? Ben M.
