The following .INI file was used by POPPST to create a new PST and place a single test message in it:
; [profile]
; NAME=Jerry Wheeler
; PASSWORD=
[newpst]
NAME=Personal Folders
ENCRYPTION=OFF
PASSWORD=
PATH=\WINNT\POPPST.PST
[message 1]
FROM=Jerry Wheeler
TO=None Two
BCC=Jerry Wheeler
FOLDER=Top of Personal Folders\Inbox
SUBJECT=POPPST Test Message 02/21/95-1
XTEXT=\PST\BODY.TXT
DATE=1995-02-21
TIME=10:25
PRIORITY=NORMAL
XATTACH=\PST\POPPST.INI
This example .INI file illustrates several points:
If you include both a [PROFILE] and a [NEWPST] section in an .INI file, one of them must be commented out.
Following the [NEWPST] section is a single [MESSAGE] section, which results in the creation of a single message in the new PST called POPPST.PST. (The "1" in the [MESSAGE] section header line is ignored by POPPST.EXE.)
POPPST does not ignore whitespace after the equals sign in a section entry line, such as the name of the mailbox (Personal Folders) in the new PST.
The body of the message to be created consists of the contents of the \PST\BODY.TXT file.
The \PST\POPPST.INI file is included in this new message as an attachment.
