Some time after I wrote that post, I learned that the freezing issue occurs without fail when the Project Center hits exactly 100 projects. It then gets progressively worse as the number of projects rises above 100. At exactly 99 projects, there is no freeze at all. This was also confirmed by one of the Microsoft specialists that sometimes visits this forum. She was able to replicate the issue in both Entourage '04 and '08. I was told that her team is now investigating the bug. For now, my workaround is to keep the number of projects under 100.
If the user is having the freezing issue when mail is downloading, they should delete projects until there are fewer than 100 projects in the Project Center. If the user cannot get the projects to archive, there may be a corrupted file somewhere in the errant project. If none of the files appear to be corrupted, then the user might try removing files one by one until the project will archive. If all the files are removed, then try removing emails one by one. If it still won't archive, all I know to do is create a duplicate project, move all the files, notes, emails, etc into the duplicate, and then delete the bad one.
