If your PSt file size has grown more than its limit then there is no need to delete any files from it because doing that will not let you make access with your data stored in PST file. that means it will not sort out your large sized PST problematic issues.Instead you will have to split your over sized PSt files into small PSt files by using a PST file splitter software.
