Outlook 2003 (just internet mail, no Exchange).

I recently moved a bunch of older stuff out of my main outlook.pst file into an archive. I also have a couple of other older .pst files.

I just noticed that my Mail Folder list now has my top-level Personal Folders (as it always has), and below it:
+ Archive Folders (with the stuff I just archived)
+ Personal Folders
+ Personal Folders
+ Personal Folders

The 3 additional Personal Folders show exactly the same content as my top-level Personal Folder. But when I right-click I don't get a "close" option.

When I right-click on the "Archive Folders", the "Close" option is enabled, but gives an error:

The operation failes. An object could not be found.

Any idea how I can clean this up?

Thanks!
 
This is usually caused by a corrupt profile. Go into Control Panel, Mail and create a new profile that points to the existing .pst file.
