Yup. I get the dreaded An object can not be found message.

I'm using SpamBayes for filtering but somehow, it apepars multiple
users have somehow got their data files crosslinked! When I try to
close one of the folders in the folder view which is not "mine" I get
the "An object can not be found" message. The file does not show up
in the list of data files you see when you Tools | options | Mail
Setup | Data Files! Ive read KB312354 which references this problem
when doing Send/Recieve. That didn't help. Ive looked at KB292022
about the meesage when you remove a .pst file. That didn't help. I
uninstalling/reinstalling Outlook. That didn't help. I read on a
search that this ususally means a honked up profile, so I removed my
old profile, made a new one, and that didn't help either!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
 
Does it work if you disable spambayes and create a new profile?

Thanks for the pointer. I did get it to work, but here is the rub. I
had to make a new profile, but with a completely new name.
Previosuly, I deleted my old profile, created a new one, but reused
the same profile name I previously had. This time, I deleted the old
profile, and made a new one with a different name and presto,
functional Outlook again! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
