We have an Exchange mail store that is causing Outlook 2007 to repair
itself frequently when it opens.  The user is running cached exchange
mode on a couple different machines.  It is a 2-3 GB mail store so the
repair can take some time to complete.  We have tried the following
without success:

*         Ran repair OST / PST on his laptop

*         Deleted and rebuild the OST

*         Migrated the user to a new mail store

*         Repaired Outlook

*         Reinstalled Office

These solution all work for a short period of time and then Outlook
returns to a state of needing to be repaired.  Has anyone seen this
before or have any suggestions on how it can be resolved?

 

Thanks,

We had a user this summer who had the same problem. We had to keep
repairing the OST file. Problem eventually went away without us doing
anything.
