Beginning today I can't delete any messages in OL2000. I get the message
"The messaging interdace has returned an unknown error. If the problem persists, restart Outlook." Restarting OL had no effect. Neither did rebooting the system (WinXP Home, latest updates to XP and Office), doing a System Restore to before yesterday's MS auto update, disabling Norton Internet Security 2005. Any ideas? I'd rather not go through the hassle of uninstall/reinstall Office 2000 if possible -szt |

Thanks for the quick response. Following your train of thought, I emptied
the Deleted Items folder in OL (I know, I said I couldn't delete any messages, but I hadn't tried deleting these). Now I can delete messages at will anywhere in OL. The PST was 389,000kB before emptying Deleted Items, now the PST is 390,000kB. -szt "K. Orland" wrote in message ... Are you using a PST?
