Office Outlook 2007 Full Mailbox lockup

J

John Stewart

I'm having problems with the outlook .pst mailbox
It appears to be in the pre 2003 file format and has reached 1.92 Gb.
The mailbox will not accept incoming mail and I can only delete "sent
items". I'm unable to delete anything in the Inbox to reduce file size even
after archiving.
I can see and open all the emails but can't do anything with them.
Possible solutions I've tried so far -
1) Created a new personal folder in the 2003-2007 format and tried to import
the existing personal folder - no data created or transferred.
2) Ran scanpst to remove errors etc and tried again - same result
3) Tried to import the existing personal data by folder, limited success
with inbox folder, but wouldn't import from sub folders.
4) Downloaded office service pack 2 - no change
5) Tried to download update KB933493 but recieved error message "software
not as expected"
I've run out of ideas, do I start from scratch and build a new folder
structure.
Any ideas (apart from chucking myself in the river.........) ?
