Obviously, the technical limit is (currently) anything but workable so no wonder the Outlook Team had set a limitation on how large a pst-file or ost-file can grow. Unless you are still using pst-files which were created in Outlook 2002/XP or previous, it is unlikely that your pst-file is still in the ANSI format, but it never hurts to check whether your pst-file is in the Unicode or ANSI format. The 2GB limit applies to ANSI formatted pst- and ost-files. However, the technical limit lies at 4194304GB (which is 4096TB or 4PB) and the default limit can be adjusted. Which maximum pst-file size would you recommend?īy default, a Unicode pst-file or ost-file can grow as large as 20GB in Outlook 2007 and 50GB in Outlook 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019 and Office 365. Obviously, I do not want to run into issues but I prefer to keep my mailbox in a single pst-file rather than to create many little ones. My guess is that the difference is a technical limit versus a recommended limit.Ĭurrently, my pst-file is reaching the 2GB and I wonder what I should do. I heard that pst-files can grow as large as 50GB in size but also heard that issues will occur when it grows beyond 2GB.
