- - OST File Size (http://www.outlookbanter.com/outlook-general-queries/39924-ost-file-size.html)

We are in a hosted Exchange environment where each users is running
Outlook 2003 in cached mode.

However, we seem to be hitting the 2GB file limitation.
I thought that Outlook 2003 does not have this limitation.

I changed the user to online mode only - no caching.

How do I proceed from here to create an OST file that can be bigger
than 2 GB ?

If Outlook is Unicode it should be able to use up to a 20 gb OST file.
However since an OST file is basically the same thing as a PST, this will
likely impact performance.

Check this Microsoft KB to see if it is of any use to you:
