After furious head scratching, Charles asked:

| I have loaded outlook from office xp 2002 on my e-machine. It worked
| once and then stopped working. The error message talks about MAPI
| and mspst.dll. Everything else in office works but not outlook. It
| either asks to start up in safe mode or open the default folders if
| the default email folders cannot be found. Can ANYONE PLEASE help me
| with this problem?
