I have deleted all messages in my pst file. Folder size says it is 1MB but
file size says it is 1.2GB. Compress PST file does not.
Any ideas?

Diane Poremsky said:There are "hidden messages" in the pst - outlook uses hidden messages to
store account information and other data, so an empty pst is not really
'empty' There will be some difference between the folder size reported in
outlook and the size windows explorer reports - .2 MG is reasonable for
this.

file and the progress ends after 5 seconds, no error msgs or other
feedback.
Folder size reports 2MB, file size shows 1.2GB.
