In many cases the best solution isn’t the shortest route but it gets the job done. For all those cases when you can’t apply the solution, the alternatives in the article are great.

Before your email message appears in Outlook, it goes first to your site’s server. It is the central repository of all your email messages. You just have to enable the “Dont delete original message” option when your email is fetched by Outlook.

Another way of backuping your email is through Gmail or Yahoomail. These two can fetch your corporate email messages through Pop3.

Do any of these solutions offer incremental backups because this will further reduce the size of the PST files you need to take care of.

Obviously it is not the most ideal of solutions, but I think it’s curious that they provided this service in the past and then later decided to no longer support it. Was it not getting used enough? Were there inherent security risks?
