Draft Folder stuck in Calendar folder of Outlook account

[Guest]

I have a user that has her drafts folder under the
calendar folder. It will not allow me to move, delete or
copy the foler. I have already tried the switches of
cleanviews and resetfolders. still not working. Any ideas
other than a re-install of the office suite?

reinstall won't help - it's in the mailbox or pst.

Are you using exchange server mailbox or a pst? if a pst, use File, New,
Outlook data store to create a new one and set it as the default message
store. Close outlook, reopen and move the folder in the old pst, then set it
as default and close outlook. close the new set of folders when you open
outlook.

What about if we are using Exchange Server?

It's trickier to fix with Exchange. If you have an old computer you can
install the old exchange client on, it's easy to drag out using the exchange
client. you my be able to move it using OWA too - that might be how it got
moved to begin with.
