I'd like to order them all nicely and neatly under folders of my own
design, by year and type, in a single Outlook 2007 PST file to be
backed up and stored safely.

The first thing is to open a Unicode PST in Outlook so that size doesn't
matter.

That's not what my wife tells me, but getting back to the issue at hand, by
Unicode you mean Office 2007 format, right?

I'd also write all the prior PSTs to a CD for storage.

Wouldn't backups of the current, mega PST be just as well? Why back up the
outdated-format originals when copies of their contents exist in the modern
version?
