Search in PST Files and own Mailbox

Hi everybody,

now we have copernic Desktop search in use to find emails and files (with Indexing pdfs and so on). Copernic is very heavy to our Network Performance, so we want to Transfer this Job to SharePoint 2013.

Let me tell you something about why we use pst Files: We archive every year a new pst file, that contains the mails of the last year. The pst file is stored on a Network share.

I didn't find any way to indexing pst files at all.

Is there any posibility?

To index your pst files and then perform a quick search to find respective emails on respective keywords, you can try using "MailXaminer" from http://www.mailxaminer.com/search-emails/

The tool is being used by most of the law enforcement and e-discovery experts to find evidences or required information from bunch of pst files or other popular email formats. Use trial version to test its features and see if it fits your need.

Dear Anuraag,

thank you for your suggestion!

But I didn't find any way to integrate SharePoint 2013 with mailxaimer.

Hi Andreas,

To be able to index PST files in SharePoint, you need to create a custom ifilter for PST.

Please refer to the link below about creating custom ifilter:
