150MB Cap for Outlook PST file

[Adrian Tan]

Hi,

It's was known that PST file may become unstable when it
exceeds 150MB cap.

However, when I try to find this piece of info from
Microsoft Website, I couldn't find any official claim to
this.

Could anyone advice whether is this 150MB cap an official
claim from Microsoft?

Thanks!

Adrian

You won't find that because it's untrue. The 'official' cap for a
personal files folder is 2GB, however, at approx. 1.5GB, problems have
been known to occur.
