Outlook XP / 2002 limit of 2 gigabytes on .PST and .OST files
Using Office XP, also called Office 2002, could limit you to a 2 gigabyte file size for postoffice .PST and offline storage .OST files.
Microsoft has posted an article addressing this problem, and it recommends updating to the latest Office XP Service Pack. This was performed on a system today, and the successful SP3 update did not remove the 2 gig limitation.
