Email Storage Limit Outlook 2007

[thierrylane]

I added on Outlook 2007 as an upgrade from from Outlook 2003 with Word, Excel
and Powerpoint. I use Clear Context to organize my In-Box (creating
sub-folders in my In-box for project notes, email and correspondence; none of
which are large or even medium sized files (measured in kbs not mbs). My
Outlook 2007 has crashed 3 times when I have reached 15-20 Clear Context sub
file folders. These files had less than 2mbs in total storage. This last
time, I had to get technical remote assistance from a service, to reload
Outlook 2007 and get it to work at all. The technician said that Outlook 2007
had a file storage size restriction. I cannot find anything in the help
files regarding this.

My question: Is Clear Context having a conflict with Outlook 2007 or is
there a file size restriction for Outlook 2007. I would appreciate input
from anyone. Thank you.

Dear Thierry,

general information about Outlook 2003/2007 PST files:

"The .pst file has a different format and folder size limit in Outlook 2007
and in Outlook 2003"

Clear Context is (my eyperiences) not a problem for Outlook.

Maybe it helps.

There is not a file size restriction in outlook 2007. Assuming the crash is
caused by clear context, it's a conflict of some sort with Clear context.
But that is an assumption.... it could be something else.

Did you make a new profile when you upgrade? Do you have any other add-ins
installed?
