I found that when ever a new profile is created in outlook a new *.srs (send receive settings)file exists. The *.srs file contains hard coded paths to the local cached pst files in documents and settings \blah\blah.

Answer: Close outlook, simply delete all the *srs files from %userprofile%\application data\Microsoft\Outlook.
EG C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\outlook.srs

When outlook is re-opened it will create a new *.srs file (* = the name of your profile in outlook)

Answer 2

When using IMAP with outlook we found that on some PC's they hang when they send receive. Set the default inbox to be the one on the server and not the local pst.
1 open outlook, but do not login or it will hang (click cancel to any login dialogue boxes)
2 Tools, options, Other Tab, Advanced options
3 Start up in this folder, set to your inbox on your imap server, has fixed it every time for us.
