pst file appears empty

[Harri]

Hello all!

I have a 450 MB pst file, that appears empty in OL98.
I have run scanpst several times, did not help.

I changed the first byte of the file from 21 to 00 with a hex editor and ran
scanpst, it did report errors, fixed them and still no help.

I tried exmerge, which reported succesful import, but did not actually
retrieve anything from the pst file.

Mdbvu32 also shows that the stuff is in there.

It seems that the problem is quite common, but does anyone have
a solution, how to fix it.

Please help!
Harri

GEE, ten years later and I'm still having this same problem. A brand new
pst is reporting 450MB with file explorer but OL (Ofc. 2010) is reporting
it as 0KB. ScanPST states that it found problems and fixed problems (I
don't know how as it is brand new and empty) but the sizes reported are
the same. Did you ever get an answer/fix for your(this) problem?
