The new unicode format has a software limit set at 20GB and can go higher if
need be. However be forewarned that if you are still using FAT32 for a
drive format, then the max file size limit set by the file system is 4GB.

Outlook 2003 also supports the legacy PST files (Outlook 97 - 2002). File
size limit there hasn't change and Outlook 2003 does not convert these files
to the new unicode format.
