Software to solve the problem of an overloaded Outlook inbox
Microsoft Outlook stores sent and received messages in a special type of database known as a PST file. At the time of its inception many years ago, the 2 GB size limitation of the Outlook PST file seemed as if it could never be exceeded. Today, with many messages containing embedded graphics and attachments, the 2 GB size limitation of the Microsoft Outlook inbox is so regularly exceeded that users find themselves deleting emails just to make space for new messages. When one forgets to do this and literally over stuffs the Outlook inbox, the inbox itself becomes corrupted and will no longer allow access.
A common method to repair 2GB PST file information that has been corrupted is to basically lop off the bottom half of the information the file contained so as to hopefully return one’s Microsoft Outlook application to operation. Obviously this is a poor solution. Better programs designed to repair 2GB Outlook inbox problems will divide the Microsoft Outlook inbox into smaller pieces that are each individually accessible. This is done by the scripting the Outlook access tables.
