can't move messages to personal folder

G

Hi,

one of my users is trying to move the messages from her inbox to her
personal folder that is on the share on the file server. The message she is
getting is "some messages can't move because they are moved, deleted or
corrupt" I abbreviated the message a little bit, but I am sure you can
understand. I had similar issues when archiving, but taking Outlook offline
fixed the problem. Taking it offline this time didn't help. If you try one
by one sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. Any ideas?

We are on the Exchange 5.5 SP 4 on Win2K box SP4 and Outlook 2002 SP3 on
Win2K Proff. SP4.


Thanks, George

Note - MS doesn't support accessing PST files across a LAN/WAN connection -
can lead to data corruption and performance problems. Try moving the PST
file to her local hard drive & try again. Check the file size - there's a
2GB limit on PST files (but problems usually occur earlier than that).

Also note: you may want to rethink this setup anyway. See
