So one of my managers (running latest MAPI with Outlook 2013 on 64 bit Windows 7) had a 6GB dat file in his profile. It corrupted. I restored the dat file prior to the corruption and it is working fine again. However, the dilemma is the cache file shouldn't be this big, theoretically. He had a large number of emails, which he has since archived off to multiple PST files. His account is reporting only about 100MB in size now. If this was a PST file, I would run Outlook's compression on it. This does not seem to be possible. So how do we compress the cache file? I know I can delete the profile but I really don't want to go through that. Any ideas? If I simply delete the cache dat file, will it be recreated once Outlook is started, as opposed to deleting the whole profile and having to reconfigure the profile again?
