I deleted 650,000 e-mails from my outlook recently, old stuff. I run an online business, the losses weren't that bad, but for those of you who think Microsoft has your back, just wait until you have something important like this happen to you.
Microsoft can't be blamed for that. They can not even image what will million of different users all around the world, do with their products. They give you help files, support, books, whatever, but they can not predict millions of different situations. You admited yourself that you most likely made a mistake. See here:

The issue here is, so many folders are in my Outlook, that i ran out of PST Space, most likely because i converted from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003, and I failed to convert to the Personal Folders instead of 2000 Format, which limited my PST file.
And no one said anything about "forum Junky". At least I can not find it in anyone's reply, no matter how hard I was searching.

By the way, im not a forum junky, i just thought someone nice could help me out. I have a life, i don't spend it in here.
You are saying that we don't have a life ? We all also have a life, but we are trying to be helpful in these forums... security, avast!, antivirus, firewall related. There are some Outlook and other Microsoft related, very helpful forums out there. So, maybe you should ask them first. To be true, that's their area. If you paid for product (Outlook 2003) you should know that they have 24/7 phone support. Of course, they will ask you for your licence number (which I'm, sure you must have 'cause you said yourself that you run some business), but at least you'll get help.
And don't think someone tried to make fun of you. We are very serious forum and we like to help. It was just unbelievable that someone who runs business and depend on so many e-mails, didn't do backup... now it's much clearer, but after all, I wouldn't call it superscrewup
We had few members in these forums who gave themselfves nicknames just because of some particular temporary problem they had at that point. Even if we solved it and helped that person, we never heard from him again... that's sad...
