  Correction: The new format files became available in Outlook 2003.

  Additional info:

  The PST size limit also affects the OST files used for
Offline/Cached mode; that's a big deal if you've got a laptop user
with a big mailbox.

  The old PST/OST format is sometimes called "ANSI" and the new format
"Unicode".  Something to do with the character sets they use/support.
(The file format certainly isn't anything remotely like any ANSI
standard I know of.)
