Actually, it is a 16GB limit for the information store in Exchange standard,
which is greatly increased with Exchange 2000 SP4 and the forthcoming
Exchange 2003 SP2.
Yes, the 2 GB limit is for PST files. However, even if Outlook 2003 allows
PST files greater than 2 GB, why would anyone want one. Depending on the
number of folders and messages, PST files over 1 GB can have performance
issues.
I tell all my clients it is best to keep PST files not much over 1 GB, and
if needed create additional PST files.
