Can not empty deleted items.

[Mike Garner]

I am running office 2003 and exchange 2003. I have a
system that the outlook if you delete a item from the
inbox it gets moved to the deleted items... If you goto
the deleted items and try and empty it you get a error
that says unable to do that or i donot have permission.

Thanks

Try deleting the OST file:

Close Outlook
Search the hard drive for
*.ost
(be sure to search in hidden files)
Then delete it (or all that you find)
Open Outlook

A new OST file will be created when you open
Outlook.
