RE: .pst over two gig
True. The way the tool works is by essentially chopping off a piece of the PST (I think like 25MB worth) and throwing it away. So no matter what, you will lose data and you cant pick what data that will be. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Daniel Chenault Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 11:28 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: .pst over two gig 1.

RE: .pst over two gig
Another thought . . . Can you still load the store for viewing? If the answer is yes, keep in mind that multiple PST's are ok. You might be able to selectively drag and drop whole sub folders, and scrub them as they arrive. It is not possible, I think, for one person to have two gigs of "real" data and not have scads of junk embedded in there. -Original Message- From: Mike Staines [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 8:56 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: .pst over two gig I remember reading here, and also on technet, about a 2 gig ceiling on a .PST file.
