Required	The PST file MUST grow at integer multiples of the number of bytes mapped by an AMap (that is, multiples of approximately 250 kilobytes). All new AMaps created MUST be properly initialized. If needed, PMaps, FMaps, and FPMaps MUST be created at the required intervals and properly initialized (section 2.2.2.7). The ibFileEof, ibAMapLast, cbAMapFree and cbPMapFree fields in the HEADER.ROOT structure MUST be updated to reflect the growth.
