can't save to personal folder - error 80040900

Hello -
I am experiencing a problem saving to a .pst file -
outlook freezes, data becomes corrupt and I am told to
try to use the repair outlook tool (scanpst.exe).
Scanpst.exe runs but after a 75% completion it stops and
gives a fatal error - 80040900.
The size of the .pst file is 1.97GB.
Any suggestions?

Thank you

Hi. How are you doing? Outlook does have a 2gb file
size limit for a pst. When the pst gets to about 1.8 gb
problems start occuring. The best thing to do is create
a second pst file & start saving all mail to your new
folders.
