Hi Martin,

That seems to work.

PST is now visible as an import format.

I have imported 3 PST files of ~2GB each and it looks like it worked.
Emails, contacts, and calendars appear to have been imported
correctly. I didn't have any tasks or notes in those PSTs. I wouldn't
call that an exhaustive test - but I presume the fix didn't involve
any (intentional) changes to the pstlib functionality,only whether it
was included in the build.

Thanks

Ross
