Look into using a product such as Auto-Mate for rules instead of Outlook?s rules in order to do what you want to do:

Exchange servers and Outlook 2002/2003 have a 32 kb limit for rules storage and while older versions of Outlook could avoid the limitation by forcing rules to be client side rules, which has unlimited storage space, Outlook 2002 and 2003 store all rules on the server. You'll need to remove some rules or use a third party tool such as auto-mate for client side rules in order to avoid PST corruption or lock outs.
