In Outlook 2007 I suddenly can't receive my e-mail and get the error message
"unknown error 0x80040600"

Can anyone help me to know where to look for the problem?

When I try to open an existing .pst file using Outlook 2002, SP-2 I get the following error code: 0x80040600 and the message: errors have been detected in the file, quit all mail enabled applications and use the inbox repair tool. I have tried adding the .pst file, importing it, opening it etc and get the same error every time. I copied this file from an Dell running windows 2000 to a dell laptop running windows 2000. I was using Outlook 2000 and now use Outlook 2002 ( Office 2000 versus Office XP ).

Got a user who's experiencing a problem when they click on the "Send and Receive" button. It goes through it's normal process and then when it get's to when it finishes, it reports an error. It says Microsoft Exchange Server has encountered and Unknown Error 0x80040600.

The above mentioned errors are faced when you work with MS Outlook 2000, 2003, 2007 or 2010 with Windows Vista or Windows XP and click Send/Receive in Outlook Inbox.
