I hope you can help me... here a couple of questions (Outlook 2003):

1) my Outlook is now quite large (the .pst is 2,180,433 KB) and I store all
my mails in it (in lots of folders and subfolders): is there a max. size and
beyond which it will stop working properly?

2) if yes:

a) could I split the the file into different accounts, so that I could have
one open for 'customers' another one for 'suppliers' and a third one for
'personal'?

b) what else would be recommendable while taking into account that I would
like to have the info (mails, some with attachments) always available?

I'm using Outlook 2003 and Windows XP.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion!
