Consider the following scenario. You use Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 with a Personal Folders file (.pst). Additionally, either you have added the .pst file to your Microsoft Exchange Server profile, or you are using the .pst file as the default delivery location for incoming e-mail messages. In this scenario, when you flag an item or create a task that is located in the .pst file, the flagged items are not displayed on the To-Do Bar.
