I can't send or receive email from Outlook. I have Vista and Windows 2007.
I get error regarding personal folder and error 0x80040604. Any ideas?

Sigh ... and what is the EXACT error message?

Hi Likewise I get a report error : -

Task '*email name*@hotmail.com: Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.'
reported error (0x80040604) : 'A folder by this name already exists.'

I can get rid of it by removing the hotmail account from Outlook and
shutting restarting then adding hotmail account again. This works for a
couple of restrts of the computer before reverting to the fault again.

Does any one know a fix or work around, apart from deleting the hotmail
account and again setting it ?
