21465 2001-10-15 05:24:00 I use Outlook 2000 solely for email and keeping my contacts. My Outlook.pst file has now balooned to more than 70mb. Removing old emails, saved email attachments etc seems to have no effect on the file's size. Is there any way to reduce the size of this file without losing the data I need to keep? Guest (0)
21466 2001-10-15 05:30:00 To compress the size of your mail.pst file, in the file tree on the left side of outlook, right click the 'Outlook Today' file, and choose Properties. This will pop up a wizard. In the wizard, click the Advanced button, and then click the Compress Now button Guest (0)

Considering that is a fairly recent version of a MICROSOFT app, you are lucky that isn't 700mb.

Nothing like a bit of humour to light a boring day. :-)
