It is either you PST or OST file corrupted.... did you try repairing it?

Hello,
I can't say I've seen this before. If another expert doesn't respond shortly, can you attach a screen shot perhaps? The junk-e-mail folder icon has the red nil/naught (O with a slash), but I do not think this is what you mean... I've only seen red X's within messages, blocking picture downloads.

If nothing else, a detect and repair (Help > Detect and Repair) or uninstalling/reinstalling Office may do the trick - this does not affect any of the saved documents for the Office suite. Also install SP3 from Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E25B7049-3E13-433B-B9D2-5E3C1132F206&displaylang=en)
Good luck!

Ahh - Patrick may be onto something too. ;-) A corrupted PST can cause all sorts of havoc.

They are on exchange.  Is there any other fix?
 
05.16.2008 at 12:30PM PDT, ID: 21585705
Working with Cached Exchange Mode? Perhaps try turning off Cached Mode.

Also try a different profile for testing. (Control Panel > Mail > Show Profiles > Add... > configure user under new profile > Set Setting "Always Use This Profile" = newprofilename > Open Outlook)

If the same issue occurs on the test profile, reset the profile to the Outlook original, and try the Detect and Repair and/or uninstall/reinstall.
Good Luck!

If they're on Exchange then try turning off cached Exchange mode, delete and recreate their Outlook profile then turn cached Exchange mode back on.

yes if you turn off cache mode it will fix some issues...... but what i recommend is repair the local OST of the email first.... then try it again.... or worse comes to worse download everything and give the user a blank mailbox then reimport... i think this will fix it... probably a broken mailbox on the server....
