Upstart is exactly the tool we’d been looking for to streamline our forensics and recovery processes. Thanks Pete!

Upstart

Upstart is a utility for converting and merging Outlook® PSTs. It converts ANSI PSTs to Unicode, Unicode PSTs to ANSI, unencrypted PSTs to encrypted and so on. In addition it combines arbitrary PSTs.

Key features
  • Combines any number of PSTs into one -- in a single operation.
  • Can merge PSTs at the root level or put each PST into its own folder tree.
  • Supports deduplication during the merge process. This allows you to consolidate multiple overlapping archives.
  • Can merge all the PSTs on a drive with one command. Great for PSTs on file servers! (Applies to Site and Enterprise editions only)
  • Performs ANSI-to-Unicode and Unicode-to-ANSI conversions in place.
  • Supports bulk conversions. Save loads of time by converting dozens of ANSI PSTs to Unicode, or vice versa, in one shot.
  • Handles all types of item: messages, Contacts, appointments, tasks, forms and views. (Outlook rules are a special case. Upstart handles rules in conversions with no problem but is not able to combine rules when merging PSTs.)
  • Guaranteed free from adware, snoopware, and all things nasty.
  • No installation step needed. Just download, unzip and run. You can carry Upstart around on a thumb drive or even a diskette.
Requirements
  • The only essential requirement for using Upstart is Microsoft® Outlook 2003 or 2007
  • A screen resolution of at least 1024x768
  • We recommend using Upstart on a system that does not have Exchange Server or the Exchange Management Tools installed
  • Upstart has some conflicts with OsaSync PRO and Lookout and should be used with caution if either of these tools is in use
