Yes, if you can believe this...
I just changed out a work mate's laptop for a new one (no, I am not part of the IT department but we won't get into that.) Made a successful backup of all files, outlook .pst, the whole 9 yards.
He called me on the phone, "Hey bubba, I used to have 2 spots for deleted items."
Cryptology is my strong suit.
"In email?" I query.
Affirmative.
Turns out the guy was using his "Deleted Items" as a storage folder. I don't know what he had in there but he is devastated. I explained what a deleted items folder is for and he said he knew that, he often manually deleted items from it and kept what he wanted in there.
Sounds a lot like he was storing stuff that maybe he shouldn't have been but who am I to judge.
Incidentally, from now on I will not let it be known in any of my future jobs that I understand computers any more than the next guy.
This blog has nothing to do with slogans. What would the three word slogan be for that? No Slogan Blog.

For solving out corrupted outlook pst files you can use outlook recovery software. Which recovers corrupt mailboxes, doesn't modify data after restoring, starts under low system requirements.
