Yes, I saw this as well, which is a problem for us as we are doing published
apps only and no desktops. So I need to get my users to a desktop to add their
PSTs.
My thought is that it's a bug in the hotfix, or there is some other part of the
post SP1 rollup that is part of this that makes this work normally. For now,
I'm willing to wait for Office 2003 SP2 and see what happens.

Thank you Evan...excellent find!
One thing I noted after applying this hotfix is that I no longer have the
option of adding a new PST from within Outlook's tools menu...now, I have to go
through control panel in order to add a PST, but it works fine from there.

Fixed.
Microsoft released Office 2003 Post SP1 hotfix rollup on March 30th. It is
only available by contacting PSS however (I have no idea why given the age)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;896253
Call to get it for free. It fixes this issue.
On a side note, Office 2003 SP2 has been released internally at Microsoft, so
I'd imagine it will be available to public soon.

I've read a BUNCH of posts of users who have the problem I do.
Outlook 2003 on 2003 Server crashing with a PST file from mspst32.dll. Many of
them have said they contacted MS and MS said that Outlook 2003 and a PST will
crash on a server with 4gb of RAM or more. They told these people to reduce
the RAM or wait for a Hotfix.
Some suggested a PAE problem. I don't use /PAE so I tried
/NOPAE and have the same result.
Someone suggested a PAE hotfix, but the user replied to them
saying they had 2003 SP1 so the hotfix was included in SP1.
One person said they have 4 servers with 4gb of RAM, 2 Compaq
and 2 Dell, and that they only had the problem on the Dell servers. I'm not
running OpenManage on my Dell servers which are effected.
Does anyone with a 2003 Server and 4GB of RAM and Outlook 2003
want to test out working with PSTs and let me know the results?
