Editing the PST migration messages for client-driven PST migration
When you enable a mailbox for client-driven PST migration, Enterprise Vault automatically delivers messages to that mailbox for various PST migration events. The type of emails that Enterprise Vault sends to user mailboxes depends on how you have set up notifications in the Exchange PST Migration policy.
During the installation, the messages are placed in the following folder beneath the Enterprise Vault program folder (typically, C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault):
Enterprise Vault\Languages\Mailbox Messages\lang
Where lang indicates the language used.
Ensure that you have copied the messages into the Enterprise Vault program folder. Otherwise, the messages are not sent even if you have configured the Exchange PST Migration policy to send notifications.
Table: PST migration messages lists the messages and describes the circumstances under which each is sent.
