RE: OT Outlook Issues



Hi,

 

Yep, there are 127 mails which are being shown, and the folder size was 300mb. And the user is reporting that her files are missing. .. its now compressed itself to 28mb.. hmmm.. me thinks I’ll do a restore from a day or so ago.

 

*bugger*

 

not to worry eh.

 

Thanks for your help!

Jonathan.

Hi

I simply assumed that there are only 127 mails in the pst folder. I
would assume that one time in the past there were 300 Meg of email but
that has been deleted.

Does the user think that there are any emails missing?

Regards

Ben

Hi Ben,

Thanks for your speedy response, however, I don't want to reduce the
size (or at least I don't care) I just want to get the e-mails back that
are / were / possibly maybe in there !

But I'm compacting it now to see if the folder size is reduced . I hope
to god that it doesn't reduce itself massively .. otherwise I'm up ess h
one tee creak without a paddle !!

Thanks,
JT

Hi

try this

Properties for the pst folder, then select advanced and then compact.

I seems like Outlook does not release the space when you delete emails

regards

Ben

Apologies for the OT post, but I have a user here with an issue in
outlook 2k, and her .pst file.

The file is being reported as 300meg, and when you view it, there are
127 e-mails in there and the file size on average is 2kb. And one mail
at 15meg.. but that's it .
I've done a search on the file.. and it only finds 127 files and one
folder (deleted items which is empty)
Can anyone shed any light as to where these files may be ? or what may
have happened.

I've tried scanpst and it found no errors but said there were 4 folders
and 127 e-mails.

I'm stuck!

If anyone can offer any advice on this, it would be most appreciated.

Regards

Jonathan.
