Well it seems to have disappeared. I ran the
cleanup agent on the storage group, and it took a while but killed it
finally. Thanks for all the input.

Interesting (especially in a couple of years), but my .PST file is only
1,193,504 KB so far.

OE has a 2GB limit, when it reaches the limit the PST gets hosed.
I had a problem like this with a massive attachment. The user had got tired of waiting for OE to delete the file, so pulled the plug and went home. Of course, when she started OE the next day, it ran even slower than the usual sick pig that it is, bleating that the mail could not be deleted.
Resolution :
1. Create a new profile in OE.
2. Copy all the stuff you want to keep into the new profile.
3. Delete old profile.
4. Strike user with blunt instrument.

I've got one too! I created a subdirectory in DELETED Items, move it there, and forgot about it. It's been there since 3/2003. If you find out how to delete it, let me know!

- We have a user who has a message in his inbox from about 3 months ago that won't delete or move. When you try to delete it, it says Unknown Error and when you try to move it, it says it has either already been moved, deleted, or you don't have permission. Funny thing is, in Exchange, in his inbox, that message does not exist, and it is not on his Blackberry either, only his Outlook Inbox. Anyone ever seen this before or have any suggestions?
