See this article about how to translate error messages:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;
[LN];Q186063

In this case, I looked it up for you. Here is what I found:

<<
//
// MessageId: RPC_E_SERVERFAULT
//
// MessageText:
//
// The server threw an exception.
//
#define RPC_E_SERVERFAULT _HRESULT_TYPEDEF_
(0x80010105L)
>>

WHY Outlook (the server in this case) threw the exception,
I couldn't tell you without seeing some of your code. Have
you ever run the code in Debug mode and experienced the
error? That at least would tell you WHERE in your code the
error occurred. Alternately, you could pepper your code
with MsgBox or (if in Debug mode) Debug.Print statements
after every major operation. Again, that would give you an
idea of where the problem is occurring.

Without more information, I can't help.
