If the error message is appearing only when users send/receive, then it has
nothing to do with permissions on the .pst file. I'd probably try creating a
new Outlook profile.

Do you have any anti-spam or anti-virus addins installed?

Thanks again, Sue. I'm sorry if my prior notes were not clear in their
explanation. Everyone that uses this machine has open access to all local
partitions and files. My next question is where in the world could such a
permission be denied, especially since I have never set any restrictions
through my Group Policy Options as administrator on my win-xp system?
Yes, I have been trying to convey that everyone is pointing to the same .pst
file at this time. This message is presented whenever I hit my PF9 -
Send/Receive key or I select one of my e-mail transports that I have setup
to process items that are currently in my OUT-BOX.
The msg: "You do not have appropriate permission to perform this operation"
suggest to me that something in win-xp has set a hidden flag, or the fixes
that I have applied to either win-xp or Outlook 2002 SP3 has some bearing on
this problem.
Thanks in advance . . . . .Tom J.
