No one ever said you corrupted a PST file, but you most certainly lost data.
The luck was that it was data you happened not to need, such as Rules and
Distribution Lists and links to Contacts and links to the Calendar and the
links to the address book view. Others may want to preserve that information
in their next installation.

Um, if you're smart enough to export the PST, why not be smart enough to
export the rules?

All of my distribution lists export and import properly....

Exporting and importing the entire PST file to populate a new installation
is simply a bad practice that should not be recommended.
