No, we have Outlook2K and I still have to compress the file to get the space
back.

Mine too. I have heard rumor that in Outlook2K and higher, it automatically
compresses the PST, but I can neither comfirm nor deny that.

My experience has been that if you delete data from a .pst file, you must
compress the .pst file to regain the space.

So PST files never reduce in size, regardless if everything is deleted?

The PST has been cleared down, this is the white space/marked deleted items
taking up the space. Now if you had a util to undelete deleted PST email....

Subject: PST files


Exchange 5.5 SP4, Outlook 98, NT 4.0 SP6.  We have a user who recently left
the company.  He has a PST file on his home drive.  A user who has taken
over his responsibilities wants to add the PST folder to their Outlook box.
If you right click on the PST  file and check properties, it says that the
file is 186 MB, but when you open the folder, there's nothing in it.
Originally, we received a message that "the file was in use and could not be
accessed". That's when I had the current user take ownership of the file and
try again. No success.  The file can now be accessed, but it shows up as 0
bytes. Anybody know why?

Thanks.

Robert
