Troubleshooting error messages that you receive when you are using OL and OE
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=813514
Your current Identity may have been damaged by your anti-virus app's email scanning (see below), especially if its the default Main Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new Named Identity (File > Identities > Add new identity). Assuming all is well, import messages from the old Identity before deleting it (File > Identities > Manage Identities).
To avoid such corruption in future:
- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose.
- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.
- Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm.
- Do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place (WinXP SP2 only).
- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.
