Talk:Personal Storage Table

firefox
I was looking at this article among my efforts to try and get a PST file to run in firefox WITHOUT exporting it or having outlook on the computer. So far, my experience is that this is impossible. This article says that firefox can import .psts, but this is actually untrue. It can import mail through MAPI, which can only be done through windows using outlook itself. Personally, I've broken down and decided to get office trial version to move the PSTs to thunderbird. I propose someone editing the article to better reflect reality, unless I"m wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.233.194.17 (talk) 20:09, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Propose Move
This article describes a file format, of which the extension is merely one property. This article is about more than just the extension. It is about the Personal Folders (.pst) file format, which is a proper name given to it by Microsoft. 76.185.126.12 (talk) 20:25, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

"and other items"
"local copies of messages, calendar events, and other items" ... what are the other items? Can we have a list. 202.78.240.7 (talk) 21:09, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Added the copyedit flag to this article
The punctuation and grammar of the article need to be revised, IMHO. tundu —Preceding undated comment was added at 23:12, 9 February 2009 (UTC).

Update flag
I flagged the size and format section for update, because I came here looking for info relevant to Outlook 2010 and the article doesn't reflect use of pst in this software. ike9898 (talk) 15:09, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Open Proprietary Format
What is an open proprietary format? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.89.158.6 (talk) 20:03, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

+1. To me "open" and "proprietary" are opposites. --FvdP (talk) 19:31, 15 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Java proprietary and still somewhat open, but Sun managed to defeat Microsoft's attempt to mangle Java into MS Java vs Sun Java code base being incompatible, as Sun still owned the language, resulting in there only being one Java to rule all.Wzrd1 (talk) 09:24, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
