Can't Delete Messages in MS Outlook
I've got a problem that appeared out of nowhere (or so it seems). I can't delete messages...when I reboot my system I can delete a few messages and then the problem starts again...ANY HELP would be appreciated!

How big is your PST file? If it's too large for your system to handle, it might be crapping out on you.

I would:

1. Run the inbox repair tool (scanpst.exe), search your local drive to find it.

2. Run the archive routine to move your old mail to a backup pst file.

Best of luck,

Please don't post duplicate links (your other one in Internet Technologies). I was going to remove this one, and leave the other post, but seeing as you had a reply, I decided to delete the other one :)

Look for it on your office disk.
