Re: .pst File is not a Personal Folders file

[Jocelyn Fiorello [MVP - Outlook]]

How much less than 1.87GB are they? Once .PST files get over the 1GB
mark, they're more and more prone to problems. (2GB is the absolute
upper limit and you won't even be able to open the files if they get
that large.)
