Hi Bob,

old PSTs (= Outlook 2000) have a max capacity of only 2 GBytes of data.
You shouldn't go over this size limit because Outlook won't open these
PST-monsters anymore. To change the old PST-format to the new PST-format
(= Outlook 2003) you should create an empty PST-file with the new
format and move the old mails into the new file manually (drag and
drop). Its quite a tedious job, but it works.

Thanks, Brian. But when I tried to drag a folder (~174MB) into an archives
folder (1.8GB), I get a message that tells me that it cannot move item .
"Archive folder reached its maximum size." It then tells me I should
consider using the new Outlook personal folders (,pst) introduced with
Outlook 2003 that provides greater capacity.

The files I'm trying to move probably were created when I had Outlook 2000.
But I'm way below 20GB total.
