I have had to rebuild the Entourage Database 6 times today...every time I
reopen it, empty the 'old database' and then try to resent or send emails I
get a mail error message.
I then close Entourage down and re open only to get the 'you need to rebuild
your database' message again.
The "Verify database" has been known to give false reports. One option that
can cause these false reports is a corrupted preference. Try deleting this
preference file in your User's --> Library Preferences:
com.microsoft.OfficeNotifications.plist
To see if the background verify option is giving a false report, try running
the Database Utility and having it do a verify operation. If it gives you a
clean bill of health, you know you are safe in turning off the background
checking.
Some users have had to uncheck this preference to stop the constant
warnings. If you are not experiencing any problems turn off the "Verify
database". I do recommend that you run regular backups of your database. Use
Tasks to set up a reminder.
Other options to check:
Bad RAM.
Being low on disk space. To check your disk space, use the Activity Monitor.
Click on Disk Usage in the bottom menu bar and select the volume where you
have Office installed. You can also use Disk Utility to see detailed
information about a disk or volume. To learn more, open Disk Utility in the
/Applications/Utilities folder and refer to Disk Utility Help.
