.pst file problem

Hi all.

I have exceeded the 1.82 Gb file .pst file size. With
Outlook 2002. Now Outlook will not let me delete or edit
any old emails, so I cannot reduce the file size. I have
downloaded the SP3 patch, but no change.

I live with email, and this is killing me. I can create a
new .pst file to get back on line, but as a consequence
loser all my old emails and address book. Any answers out
there? I am so desperate I may just go and buy outlook
2003 to try to solve the problem....

Thanks in advance.

Craig.

Not possible; the file need to be cropped first. The import wizard can't
connect to corrupted/oversized pst-files either.
