I am running Outlook 2000 on Windows 98SE. My pst file is 85 Mbytes. I had
several e-mails with substantially large e-mail attachments that I deleted
from my sent items folder and then emptied the deleted items folder. The
size of my pst file did not go down. This situation is unacceptable. Can
anyone help? Third party utilities to resolve this issue would also be of
interest.
