I am running SBS W2K3 R2 with SP2. Exchange is configured to allow an
unlimited amount of email per employee. I have a new wkstn running XP SP2 and
Office 2007. A new employee joined the company and brought a CD with several
..pst files from his previous company. The total size of all the .pst files
combined is probably between 4-5Gb. I started to import them via the import
wizard in Outlook 2007 and failed when the size of the .ost file hit approx
1.9 Gb. What can I do to import all the .pst files into the users mailbox.
 
The article references Exchange 2007. I have SBS 2003 and Outlook 2007. Is
the article still applicable. tks.
 
You can delete the OST file since it will recreate when Outlook is opened.
You can also try using File > Open instead of using import.
