Removing multiple instances of "personal folders" in Outlook 2002

[eejay]

Somehow I've managed to generate multiple instances of the above (about 4).
What I would like to do is either delete them directly, or if that is not
possibe, to strip my mail boxes (containing 182MB of mail) out of the .pst
file, back them up and re-install outlook.

The easiest way to fix the issue of "ghost" .PST files is to create a new
mail profile from scratch. You can do this via Control Panel | Mail | Show
Profiles.

Yes, that would work but it doesn't get back my 182 MB of mail !

You can add the .PST file with the 182 MB of data to the new profile...there
will just be one copy of it this time and not 4.
