If your file size goes beyond that then your PST file gets corrupted. As a regular practice, if you shrink PST file and make space available then you can`t face this situation. After deletion of emails, email attachment your PST file size remains same, it doesn`t get change. To reduce PST file size, you need to shrink PST files.
