I know this sounds stupid, but I feel fairly confident that it will resolve your problem.

Run performance optimizer on your Exchange server. You do not have to relocate any of the files if it suggests.
Performance Optimizer does much more than just move files around.
I have run into your exact issue several times (many years ago though). Running performance optimizer corrected the problem.

I assume that you are having problems moving things around in your pst??  Is your pst local or on a remote share.

Thanks for the help. We were able to resolve the problem by stopping and restarting the exchange services.

The performance optimizer was the next thing I was going to try if that didn't work.
