Hi,

I would like to start with a blank pst file. I want to start again with no
contacts, no emails, no appointments.

How should I proceed to make this?

Thanks for your help,

Olivier

Assuming Outlook 2002/2003, since you didn't think it important to mention
your Outlook version, click File>New>Outlook Data File, Browse to where you
want the new PST (or accept the default), give it a name (or accept the
default), and click OK. Then click Tools>E-mail Accounts>Next. At the
bottom left, use the drop-down to make the new PST your delivery location.
Click Finish. Restart Outlook. Click File>Data File Management, select
your old PST and click Remove. The next time you close Outlook, you can
delete the old PST if you wish.
 
I still have one issue. When I am sending an email, the email is sent
through the old 'outbox'. I am getting the new emails in the new personal
folder but when I sent emails, it does it by the old outbox. How can I
solve this?

Thanks again,

Olivier

The Inbox, Outbox, Calendar, Tasks, Contacts, etc. folders that will be used
are those specified by the delivery location. You have no other choice. If
you have only one PST, Outlook certainly can't be using a second PST.
