[SOLVED] PST root Folder

[rickvv]

Help with a massive "PST RootFolder"
Using Outlook2003, pop account, 15000 msgs

What is PST root folder, why aren't the messages importing into Inbox/sent, etc?
I'd hate to think about moving these 1000's of messages 100-at-a-time (maximum messages per pane). Is there a better way to get these into inbox?

I think I learned that running the scanpst utility helps clean up errors.
I ran that on this PST file, and re-imported.
I'm still fighting the addressbook, but we can mark this 'solved'.
Sorry for the extraneous noise.
Thanks zimbra team

15,000 ain't massive -though you would have to divide that into the size
let's see this account has 214,743 (and I know there's plenty of people who can beat that)
-of course most of that could be a lot less if I didn't have so many damn log file summaries to review...why they can't be thrown into something like splunk or another logfile aggregation database for viewing at my pleasure when needed I don't know...

I was gonna say you could always use a thick-client to transfer the entirety of folders, or zmmailbox to rename folders, but guess your past that.

I know it isn't that big...but I was getting thousands of msgs in the PST root folder and in the zimbra inbox.
And then the contact didn't import.
But after scanpst, things seemed to go...
Yep, past that. I'll look at the CL tools next time.
Thanks,
