I Would Like To Rebuild My Outlook PST File - What Are The Steps Please?
At present my Outlook PST file is just under 2.5GB. It is running fine, but I don't believe that the file size is correct and so it may be taking up a lot of extra space unnecessarily.
At one point it was only 500MB in size and since then the total amount of old email messages I have saved hasn't changed much. But I have been using the file for a long time and I believe that something might be wrong with it in the sense that it never actually deletes old mails and attachments somehow even though I empty them from the trash periodically. What I was wondering if there are simple steps I can follow to rebuild the file where nothing will be lost and potentially I end up with a new PST file which is much smaller in size and contains all the mails that are in there now? Cheers for any help you may be able to offer. Last edited by marcbkk : June 15th 10 at 02:25 PM. |
