I'm not quite sure what this means - spambayes doesn't attempt to
automatically locate any PST files, nor does it make any attempt to "attach"
to anything.

Spambayes uses the MAPI APIs to deal with messages - its more likely that
Outlook itself is doing what you describe.  Spambayes deals only with the
"ID" of messages or folders, and MAPI itself translates that to access into
PST files or whatever else MAPI supports.

Again, Spambayes makes no attempt to explicitly open or close PST files.  It
does everything via MAPI, so any such errors are likely to be there.

I assume you've tried the standard 'scanpst' tool that comes with outlook?

I'm afraid you will need to explain in more detail exactly what happened,
and exactly what role you believe Spambayes played in that.  Spambayes never
touches the PST files directly, only as a side-effect of using MAPI.
Spambayes makes no attempts to "link" anything.

Spambayes can't touch these link parameters - either to cause the problem in
the first place, or to repair already broken ones.
