Hi there. Actually the *.ost file is offline storage folder for mailboxes. Havent you configured offline folder for public folders? At that case, those folders are homed inside your pst file.

Is there a reason for such a behavior? Note: I configured "Offline folder settings" in Outlook 2000 to allow synchronization. Upon exiting Outlook, synchronization does take place. Please shed the light on this for me.
