Well.... I happened to look at the size of my *archive* .pst file. It was over 2GB big.
So, I tried removing it from the Folder List, and I got an error saying "Object Not Found". I then went and I renamed the archive.pst file, and then when I started Outlook it popped some errors saying that the file could not be found, which I expected. So *then* I tried to remove the folder from the list, same error "Object not Found". Anyways, without that Archive folder 'loaded' things seem a bit faster. I never thought that those folders in the list (you can add additonal .pst files to your folder list display) would be such an issue. I always tried to keep the main outlook.pst file down, by Archiving the contents to this archive.pst :). I'll post back on how things go now. On 6/11/07, Vivec <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ANything.
