Local Archive access problem

[chazoid]

I've been archiving all of my email on my local hard drive for a while without problems, but recently I started getting this message box when trying to view certain emails from the archive. The email doesn't even show up in the preview pane - I get the message as soon as I highlight the email in the upper pane:

"Archive Database - Sorry but you cannot compose reply messages from your archive database"

I only happens for certain emails. Another user here at work started having this problem at around the same time I did.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Maybe try rebuilding the view indexes.

Open the archive and do a Ctrl + Shift + F9.

I recall fixing a problem where the message in the preview was not the same as the message selected in the inbox. Maybe this is related.

Hope this helps

Thanks ABOzIT,
I gave it a shot, but no luck.. I tried creating a new blank database and moving some messages to it, but I got an error saying something about not being able to move a single message that is part of a chain of replies without the original message. Maybe it has something to do with my archive settings. I seem to remember an option related to this when I was setting it up. When I'm back at the PC I'll look into it further.
