Folks,
I used to Import feature of outlook to merge several .PST files I had, and
as I found out later, it created a DUPLICATE identical Personal Folders which
I could not get rid of - I ended up having to delete the Profile, reentering
all my accounts information and it is all good now.

I however, need to MERGE multiple .PST files and I DO NOT want to use that
import feature again. I tried it again in a VPC and the results are
reproducible. It creates that duplicate folder ...

Any techniques out there for MERGING 4-5 .pst files into one, after which I
will take it apart to make sure it won't get too big.

Any advice?

Cheers,
Baram
