·         File menu à New à Outlook data file à Office Outlook PST à Ok
·        Specify the display name of the PST file in the name box, which is used by Outlook in the Mail folder list.
·       In the Move item dialogue box make sure that the new folder in the new .PST file is selected. Click Ok.
