Andy,

It's known problem, we found this in IDC some years ago. It's really
lock-related issue. 
Actually, it's not so good idea to store MS Office documents in AFS as well
- in case you share them with others.
Use NTFS for it.

Subject: AFS problemswith MS Outlook.PST files


Just a short note: apparently it is not a good idea to place
a Microsoft Outlook 2000.PST Personal Folders file on an AFS
disk. Repeated data corruption, requiring Inbox Repair Tool.

I'm not terribly surprised. I'm guessing different lock semantics.
But, I am wondering if anyone has a list of such compatibility
errors.

Config info:

NT4
Outlook 2000
AFS Client for Windows v3.4a
