Outlook is in standalone mode, connecting to POP3/SMTP only. There is no
Exchange server. The .pst file is about 2.5 Gb in size.

The PC has 1Gb of RAM but performance noticably slows to a crawl while
Outlook is running then returns to normal when Outlook is closed.

The memory is use by Outlook varies somewhat, but is currently reported by
Task Manager to be 141,512K

Systernals' Process Explorer reports the following:

Private Bytes: 101,480
Peak Private Bytes: 105,880
Virtual Size: 720,752
Page Faults 70,276
