In my experience, tt's not really safe to say that the .pst file size limit
is 2G. If you are working in Exchange then your large .pst, combined with
others who may have similarly *fat* files, will slow down Exchange itself.
When I was with the company where I last used Exchange, we had an automatic
cutoff administered by the network admin guys that flagged up when anybody
was getting near 1.3G, so that they had time to sort individual .psts out
before they started causing network problems.
I found out to my cost that a *fat* .pst was a dangerous beast as I lost
about 4 months worth of work which I could *see* in my .pst but couldn't
open any files or re-sort the order within the folders. The whole d**n lot
corrupted.
I gotta endorse the recommendation that you split your stuff into multiple
.psts long before you get to 1.5G!

I've been reading this thread with interest this evening hoping I could
solve a big riddle I have,, but to no avail. =20
I have a pretty big .pst file - ~ 1.5G. Yeah, OK, I save everything. =
And I
don't want to lose any of it. Any kind of loss sends me teetering on =
the
edge. So, I've tried to archive all of the old stuff. Tried every =
which
way, including just turning off the auto-archive and doing it manually. =
The
folders have been created in my archive.pst file, but all of the old =
email
items stay where they were. =20
So - I've had trouble lately with OL not opening, then OL safemode won't
open sometimes either, then the repair tool runs, and after a few =
reboots I
finally can get OL to run... & all the time I'm biting my nails. Right =
now,
I can get OL Help to open. I receive an error msg - "Error starting MS
Help". And that worries me. =20
Any ideas, suggestions, assistance, whatever? If yes, it would be much
appreciated.
Thanks so much,
nan
