Multiple duplicate PST folders
 
Hi, I hope someone can help me. I run Outlook 2003 connected to an exchange
server over RAS/VPN. When I open my client I can see my personal folder &
my server folder. All mail is automatically downloaded in to my personal
folder. Yesterday I got a message telling me some outlook files were
corrupt so i ran chkdsk and rebooted to fix the errors. Now when I open the
client I have personal, Server and personal again. The last is identical to
the first and they are both from the same file, E:\work\Mail\swillcox.pst.
I have tried renaming and creating a new one, get the same problem. Has
anyone else experienced this and what have you done to overcome it?

Many thanks in advance

Simon Willcox

Can you right click on the root of one of the duplicates and choose "Close"?
If that doesn't work, see if the advice here helps:
