.pst file maxed out
 
So I should have been using autoarchive.
So I should have know there was a limit to the .pst file size.

But now I have a whole section of outlook that is completely locked up. I
cannot delete anything to reduce the file size.

What now?

Is Outlook totally useless to me? No way of repairing? Reversing? No
forgiveness?

Outlook will work - rename the old pst and make a new one.

To recover the data in the old pst, see
