Hi all,

my mailbox size is very huge and I'd create a folder to move there a great part of emails.

I knew there were a kind of "offline" folders which allow me to view my emails into outlook but the emails were not actually within the mailbox datafiles.

Can someone please help me?

thanks!

Ale

Hello AleMadama

Hi, I'm Karl and will be happy to help you today.

What you want to do is create folders in a PST file and then move the items to those folders. You can create a new PST file for this purpose if you don't already have one.

To do this

From the <Home> ribbon in Outlook, click on <New Items> --> <More Items> --> <Outlook Data FIle>

  • give the PST file a name if you don't like the default name given by Outlook
  • select the folder you want to save the PST file (if you don't want to use the default folder)
